Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall C
ValueC NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The Patriots got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C.

The Patriots bet big and early on Jason Henderson, 167 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

The Mondon Jr. value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere.

In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Colston Loveland
In slot 20 they get a security blanket over the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Matthew Golden
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Matthew Golden. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick39 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Nick Emmanwori in pick No. 39, plain and simple. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick41 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
Donovan Ezeiruaku in the 41st overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kyle Kennard
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kyle Kennard in No. 58, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick69 Rnd3 O'Donnell Fortune
They talked themselves into O'Donnell Fortune at the Round 3 slot, and the board did not agree. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick81 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at the 81st overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick89 Rnd3 Devin Neal
A reasonable price with a little left over, Devin Neal in pick 89. It fills a real need, too.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jackson Slater
Jackson Slater at pick No. 105 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick118 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
The board had cheaper options than Darius Alexander at Round 4, Pick 17, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick121 Rnd4 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Dont'e Thornton Jr.. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick132 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
A tidy little value on Emery Jones Jr. in slot 132, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick136 Rnd4 Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty in the 136th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick145 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
You do not let a safety like Lathan Ransom reach No. 145 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick167 Rnd5 Jason Henderson
Jason Henderson at the Round 5 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick176 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at the 176th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick219 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
Somehow Luke Lachey was still sitting there in the 219th pick, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick222 Rnd7 Marcus Yarns
A big swing on Marcus Yarns at No. 222, well ahead of any board in the building. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick234 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
They barely believed it either: Jack Kiser still on the board at Round 7, Pick 16. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick240 Rnd7 Donovan Smith
No edge and no loss on Donovan Smith in pick 240; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
