New England Patriots

Nobody dealt better than the Patriots this weekend: B.

Future B-

The Patriots spent real capital to be 127 picks early on Traeshon Holden, and the board is going to hold them to it.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Landing Higgins that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

They will answer for taking linebacker early while quarterback and running back went begging. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.4 · Pick 36 · Nick Emmanwori · S · rank 17
Nick Emmanwori in No. 36 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R2.7 · Pick 39 · Kenneth Grant · DT · rank 26
They let Kenneth Grant come to them and pounced at the Round 2 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R2.23 · Pick 55 · Jihaad Campbell · LB · rank 40
Jihaad Campbell at pick 55 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R2.32 · Pick 64 · Tyler Warren · TE · rank 44
Tyler Warren at the 64th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Antwaun Powell-Ryland · DL-EDGE · rank 156
Antwaun Powell-Ryland in the 67th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.4 · Pick 68 · Tyleik Williams · DT · rank 54
Tyleik Williams is a better player than pick No. 68 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.5 · Pick 69 · Donovan Jackson · OT · rank 85
A conviction pick on Donovan Jackson at the 69th overall pick that the board grades a round light. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R3.6 · Pick 70 · Ajani Cornelius · OT · rank 103
A wild overpay on Ajani Cornelius in the Round 3 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R3.15 · Pick 79 · Emery Jones Jr. · OT · rank 173
Emery Jones Jr. in pick 79 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.2 · Pick 103 · Jayden Higgins · WR · rank 75
Jayden Higgins in the 103rd pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R4.23 · Pick 124 · Carson Schwesinger · LB · rank 132
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending slot 124 on Carson Schwesinger with quarterback and running back unsolved.
R5.1 · Pick 138 · Nick Nash · WR · rank 240
Value said wait; Nick Nash in Round 5, Pick 1 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R7.3 · Pick 219 · Jalen Rivers · OT · rank 312
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jalen Rivers in No. 219, miles early. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R7.4 · Pick 220 · Oscar Delp · TE · rank 252
Oscar Delp at pick No. 220 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R7.22 · Pick 238 · Traeshon Holden · WR · rank 365
They left a pile of value on the table to take Traeshon Holden this early at pick No. 238. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
