Good, not great, for the Patriots: B. Nobody else had Kyren Lacy anywhere near the Round 7 slot. The Patriots did, by 56 spots, and that gap is the whole story. Good, not great, and the B says as much.
For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Warren.
Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Luther Burden III
In pick No. 14 they get a go-to option on the outside, even if it was a touch early. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
Steal is underselling it; Tyler Warren at the 38th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick45
Rnd2
Cameron Williams
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Cameron Williams well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick50
Rnd2
JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau at Round 2, Pick 18 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick69
Rnd3
Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander in the 69th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick77
Rnd3
Donovan Jackson
They let Donovan Jackson come to them and pounced at pick 77. The roster fit checks out.
Pick106
Rnd4
Cam Skattebo
Fair-plus on Cam Skattebo, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick144
Rnd5
Dillon Gabriel
Dillon Gabriel at pick 144 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick217
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
A tidy bit of business in the 217th overall pick, where Donovan Edwards graded well above the range. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick220
Rnd7
Jordan Hancock
A clean, defensible pick in slot 220 with a little surplus value in Jordan Hancock. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick232
Rnd7
Kyren Lacy
A big swing on Kyren Lacy at Round 7, Pick 16, well ahead of any board in the building. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick238
Rnd7
Shemar James
Shemar James in the 238th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It adds depth where they could use a little.
