New England Patriots

The Patriots worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Patriots came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close.

The Morrison pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. They banked enough surplus on Sanders to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.8 · Pick 8 · Will Campbell · OT · rank 10
Will Campbell in the 8th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
R2.7 · Pick 39 · Donovan Jackson · OG · rank 58
They talked themselves into Donovan Jackson at pick No. 39, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R2.9 · Pick 41 · Josaiah Stewart · DE-EDGE · rank 48
Josaiah Stewart at Round 2, Pick 9 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R3.8 · Pick 72 · Jay Higgins · LB · rank 61
A tidy bit of business in the Round 3 slot, where Jay Higgins graded well above the range. A minor itch, scratched.
R3.22 · Pick 86 · Evan Stewart · WR · rank 93
A straight-up fair deal on Evan Stewart at pick 86, value and slot in agreement. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R4.7 · Pick 108 · Benjamin Morrison · CB · rank 133
Benjamin Morrison at the 108th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R5.6 · Pick 144 · Jonah Coleman · RB · rank 163
They reached a country mile for Jonah Coleman at slot 144, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R7.4 · Pick 218 · Kyren Lacy · WR · rank 216
No drama and no debate, Kyren Lacy went about where he belonged in No. 218. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R7.6 · Pick 220 · Cooper Mays · C · rank 241
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Cooper Mays well ahead of where he belonged. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.22 · Pick 236 · Shilo Sanders · S · rank 215
Circle this one: Shilo Sanders at pick 236 is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R7.42 · Pick 256 · Dorian Strong · CB · rank 259
No edge and no loss on Dorian Strong in No. 256; it is a wash and a sensible one. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
