Future B-

You build a draft on nights like this. Harold Perkins Jr. had no business being available in pick No. 213, and the Patriots did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

The Ersery pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.8 · Pick 8 · Ashton Jeanty · RB · rank 2
In pick 8 they get an every-down engine for the run game. A real need, handled.
R2.4 · Pick 36 · Tate Ratledge · OG · rank 30
Tate Ratledge in the 36th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R2.7 · Pick 39 · Xavier Restrepo · WR · rank 22
Xavier Restrepo in the 39th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.4 · Pick 68 · Aireontae Ersery · OT · rank 84
They jumped the gun on Aireontae Ersery, taking him earlier than his grade liked. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.6 · Pick 70 · Kenneth Grant · DL · rank 67
Kenneth Grant at Round 3, Pick 6 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R3.19 · Pick 83 · Smael Mondon Jr. · LB · rank 42
Smael Mondon Jr. in No. 83 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R4.4 · Pick 105 · Xavier Watts · S · rank 21
Circle this one: Xavier Watts at the Round 4 slot is a fall that decides a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.4 · Pick 142 · Quinshon Judkins · RB · rank 85
The board fumbled Quinshon Judkins all the way to pick No. 142, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
R6.38 · Pick 213 · Harold Perkins Jr. · LB · rank 121
Steal is underselling it; Harold Perkins Jr. at No. 213 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
R7.6 · Pick 220 · Lathan Ransom · S · rank 145
A safety of that caliber at slot 220 is the definition of value, full stop. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R7.10 · Pick 224 · Hunter Wohler · S · rank 210
The board had Hunter Wohler higher than pick 224, and the safety fell to them anyway. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R7.27 · Pick 241 · Jonah Monheim · C · rank 201
Jonah Monheim in the 241st pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
