Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Patriots let Viliamu-Asa fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa, the 125th pick, roughly 110 picks past where he belonged. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Yhonzae Pierre
In the 30th pick they get a double-digit-sack hope, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 Duce Robinson
Duce Robinson at pick No. 62 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick94 Rnd3 Will Echoles
Steal is underselling it; Will Echoles at the 94th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick125 Rnd4 Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa
They will replay Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa at the Round 4 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick130 Rnd4 Koi Perich
Good price on Koi Perich in No. 130, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick168 Rnd5 Williams Nwaneri
Somehow Williams Nwaneri was still sitting there in slot 168, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick189 Rnd6 Mateen Ibirogba
Mateen Ibirogba in Round 6, Pick 10 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jake Guarnera
Jake Guarnera in pick 200 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick207 Rnd6 Niki Prongos
No drama and no debate, Niki Prongos went about where he belonged in the Round 6 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick209 Rnd6 C.J. Fite
They did well to land C.J. Fite in the 209th pick, just ahead of his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick246 Rnd7 Sammy Omosigho
The board fumbled Sammy Omosigho all the way to pick 246, and they scooped it up. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
