Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Patriots. Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Drew Kendall at pick No. 238 is 55 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.
Gordon II falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.
The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September. A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick17
Rnd1
Josh Simmons
In the 17th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
Circle this one: Tyler Warren at No. 38 is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick49
Rnd2
Alfred Collins
No edge and no loss on Alfred Collins in pick 49; it is a wash and a sensible one. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick69
Rnd3
Jalen Royals
Fair-plus on Jalen Royals, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick77
Rnd3
Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo in slot 77 is fair value, right on his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick102
Rnd3
Lathan Ransom
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Lathan Ransom. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick106
Rnd4
LeQuint Allen
They left a pile of value on the table to take LeQuint Allen this early at No. 106. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick144
Rnd5
Sai'vion Jones
No drama and no debate, Sai'vion Jones went about where he belonged in pick No. 144. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick196
Rnd6
Ollie Gordon II
They robbed the room for Ollie Gordon II here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick217
Rnd7
Luke Lachey
A quiet steal in Round 7, Pick 1: Luke Lachey for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick220
Rnd7
Caleb Ransaw
Value with a capital V on Caleb Ransaw in the Round 7 slot, a genuine coup. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick238
Rnd7
Drew Kendall
Drew Kendall at slot 238 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
