Yves DRAFTING FOR THEPatriots

Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall
B+

FutureA+
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Patriots: B+. The rest of the league had time to spare on Nick Nash; the Patriots did not wait, grabbing him 137 spots ahead at Round 4, Pick 2. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.
Skattebo at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick19
Rnd1
Josh Conerly Jr.
In the 19th pick they get a long-term starter on the line, a steep price for the projection. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
No edge and no loss on Tyler Booker in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick36
Rnd2
Derrick Harmon
Nothing to complain about; Derrick Harmon went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick39
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tyler Warren. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick44
Rnd2
Donovan Ezeiruaku
Donovan Ezeiruaku at No. 44 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick53
Rnd2
Jihaad Campbell
A slide stopped in pick No. 53, with Jihaad Campbell worth more than the price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick67
Rnd3
Deone Walker
Deone Walker in the 67th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick79
Rnd3
Emery Jones Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Emery Jones Jr. in the 79th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick103
Rnd4
Nick Nash
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Nick Nash. It fills a real need, too.
Pick138
Rnd5
Nohl Williams
Nohl Williams in the Round 5 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick219
Rnd7
Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin at pick No. 219 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
Pick220
Rnd7
Cam Skattebo
Taking Cam Skattebo in No. 220 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick238
Rnd7
RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey at slot 238 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
