The Patriots did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Trey Amos fell into the Round 7 slot.
The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.
The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.
Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick No. 15 they get a building block for the line. A real need, handled.
They read the board right and Isaiah Bond was the payoff at No. 36. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Taking Jahdae Barron in pick 47 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Somehow Tate Ratledge was still sitting there in the 68th overall pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Tre Harris at the 83rd pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
They will replay Jalon Walker at slot 105 for years; that is how good the value is. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Mike Green in Round 4, Pick 15 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Ashton Jeanty at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
T.J. Sanders in the Round 6 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Bradyn Swinson at slot 220 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Circle this one: Malachi Moore at pick 223 is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Trey Amos in the 241st pick, plain and simple. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
