Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Grand theft in slot 144: the Patriots steal Horton and grade out a A.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Tory Horton tumbling to the Patriots in pick No. 144 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. The sum of the weekend is a deserved A.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. The Watson pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In the Round 1 slot they get a building block for the line. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Tyler Warren in pick 38, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick47 Rnd2 Grey Zabel
The board had Grey Zabel higher than the 47th pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick69 Rnd3 Tre Harris
A quiet steal in slot 69: Tre Harris for less than the market said. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick77 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
They did well to land Omarr Norman-Lott in the 77th overall pick, just ahead of his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick106 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
They let Darius Alexander come to them and pounced at Round 4, Pick 4. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick115 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. slid further than he should have, and pick No. 115 is lovely value for the safety. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick118 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in No. 118 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick119 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
A linebacker of that caliber at the 119th pick is the definition of value, full stop. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick144 Rnd5 Tory Horton
Steal is underselling it; Tory Horton at the 144th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick152 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough in pick No. 152 lands just on the right side of the ledger. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick171 Rnd5 Chase Lundt
They took Chase Lundt at par in slot 171, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick218 Rnd7 Desmond Watson
Value said wait; Desmond Watson in pick 218 says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick220 Rnd7 Maxen Hook
A tidy little value on Maxen Hook in Round 7, Pick 4, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick239 Rnd7 Donovan Edwards
Circle this one: Donovan Edwards at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
