New England Patriots

A respectable, level-headed haul for the Patriots: B+.

The Patriots put a flag in the ground for Jaydon Blue, 93 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

The Kiner pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Adonai Mitchell gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.14 · Pick 14 · Tyler Warren · TE · rank 16
In No. 14 they get a security blanket over the middle. A real need, handled.
R2.6 · Pick 38 · Luther Burden III · WR · rank 14
Luther Burden III at the 38th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R2.13 · Pick 45 · Jihaad Campbell · LB · rank 41
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jihaad Campbell in slot 45. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Donovan Jackson · OT · rank 82
Donovan Jackson at pick 69 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
R3.13 · Pick 77 · Jayden Higgins · WR · rank 68
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jayden Higgins at Round 3, Pick 13 is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R4.4 · Pick 105 · Jared Wilson · C · rank 106
Jared Wilson at the 105th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R5.6 · Pick 145 · Darius Alexander · DT · rank 126
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Darius Alexander in the 145th pick, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R7.1 · Pick 219 · Howard Cross III · DL · rank 214
A tidy little value on Howard Cross III in the Round 7 slot, a step better than break-even. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R7.4 · Pick 222 · Jaydon Blue · RB · rank 315
They talked themselves into Jaydon Blue at Round 7, Pick 4, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
R7.16 · Pick 234 · Ty Hamilton · DT · rank 239
By-the-book stuff, Ty Hamilton at pick No. 234 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R7.22 · Pick 240 · Corey Kiner · RB · rank 187
Corey Kiner in the 240th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
