Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Patriots: B-.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Davin Vann, 49 picks early at No. 220. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The Johnson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
Jack Sawyer at No. 4 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick38 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
They took Jihaad Campbell at par in the 38th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick69 Rnd3 Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison at Round 3, Pick 5 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick77 Rnd3 David Walker
This one needs a full-page explanation: David Walker in pick 77, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick106 Rnd4 Charles Grant
A quiet steal in the Round 4 slot: Charles Grant for less than the market said. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick144 Rnd5 Tez Johnson
The board fumbled Tez Johnson all the way to the 144th pick, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick217 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
They let Kyle Monangai come to them and pounced at the Round 7 slot. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick220 Rnd7 Davin Vann
A real head-scratcher, Davin Vann in pick 220 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick238 Rnd7 CJ Dippre
No drama and no debate, CJ Dippre went about where he belonged in No. 238. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
