FutureB-
The Patriots fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. You can hear the double-takes from here. The Patriots took Drew Kendall at the 238th pick, roughly 54 spots before his name belonged. Good, not great, and the B says as much.
They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through safety.
Kolton Miller gives the group a proven body among the projects. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick12
Rnd1
Tetairoa McMillan
In the 12th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38
Rnd2
Donovan Ezeiruaku
Donovan Ezeiruaku in pick 38 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick44
Rnd2
Carson Schwesinger
Carson Schwesinger at the Round 2 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick69
Rnd3
Dylan Sampson
A tidy little value on Dylan Sampson in the 69th pick, a step better than break-even. It fills a real need, too.
Pick106
Rnd4
Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer at No. 106 is a conviction pick that outran the value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick144
Rnd5
Andres Borregales
They jumped the gun on Andres Borregales, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick171
Rnd5
Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams at the Round 5 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick220
Rnd7
Bilhal Kone
They paid a round early for Bilhal Kone in the 220th pick, more than the board wanted. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick238
Rnd7
Drew Kendall
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Drew Kendall. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
