Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Schwesinger: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Carson Schwesinger, the No. 128 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 217. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In slot 6 they get a long-term starter on the line. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka slid further than he should have, and pick 38 is lovely value for the wide receiver. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at pick No. 69 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick77 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Donovan Jackson. It fills a real need, too.
Pick81 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott slipping to Round 3, Pick 17 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick104 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
They robbed the room for TreVeyon Henderson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The roster fit checks out.
Pick143 Rnd5 Elijah Arroyo
They will replay Elijah Arroyo at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick217 Rnd7 Carson Schwesinger
Steal is underselling it; Carson Schwesinger at the 217th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick220 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II in No. 220 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick222 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
Nice patience on Seth McLaughlin, who had no business lasting to Round 7, Pick 6. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
They read the board right and Jackson Hawes was the payoff at the 238th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
