Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Patriots: B.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Patriots took Drew Kendall a full 54 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

However the rest shakes out, Williams at that price is a win they earned. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
By-the-book stuff, Abdul Carter at the 4th pick squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
The board fumbled Tyler Warren all the way to pick No. 38, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick69 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
They liked Ozzy Trapilo enough to skip the value, taking him in the 69th overall pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Somehow Jayden Higgins was still sitting there in the Round 3 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick106 Rnd4 Cameron Williams
A offensive lineman of that caliber at Round 4, Pick 4 is the definition of value, full stop. It fills a real need, too.
Pick144 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
A clean, defensible pick in slot 144 with a little surplus value in Malachi Moore. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick217 Rnd7 Donovan Edwards
Nice patience on Donovan Edwards, who had no business lasting to No. 217. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick220 Rnd7 Nazir Stackhouse
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Nazir Stackhouse at slot 220 is the proof. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick238 Rnd7 Drew Kendall
Drew Kendall at Round 7, Pick 22 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
