They swung and missed this year on a 7th-round WR. They can't afford to take that chance again at this juncture. Certainly they have whiffed on upper-round WR picks in the past, but the odds are much better that you'll get a playmaker in the second round than in the sixth or seventh. For every Antonio Brown there are a hundred Smith-Shusters.
Not much of a "swing" at pick #210. More like a bunt. Anyway, I'm not particularly concerned about a late 7th, especially when the Pats got the pick from the Raider along with Patterson in exchange for a 5th rounder - a 5th-rounder that the Pats had acquired from Browns in the Shelton deal.
In any case, as far we know, Berrios iss only a "miss" for this season's action. We really don't know yet what he'll look like in 2019.
