Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC- FutureA
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Patriots.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Patriots spent Round 7, Pick 4 on Jimmy Horn Jr., a name the board had a full 111 spots lower.

The safety spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. That Henderson pick is the receipt they will wave around later.

The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

Good work on the whole, with safety the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 14th pick they get a go-to option on the outside at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in the Round 2 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea in the 45th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick69 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
A quiet steal in No. 69: TreVeyon Henderson for less than the market said. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick77 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
A clean, defensible pick in Round 3, Pick 13 with a little surplus value in Omarr Norman-Lott. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick106 Rnd4 Quinn Ewers
They let Quinn Ewers come to them and pounced at slot 106. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick144 Rnd5 Trevor Etienne
Trevor Etienne at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick217 Rnd7 Alijah Huzzie
They took Alijah Huzzie at par in Round 7, Pick 1, which is nothing to complain about. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick220 Rnd7 Jimmy Horn Jr.
A big swing on Jimmy Horn Jr. at pick No. 220, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick232 Rnd7 Ethan Downs
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Ethan Downs well ahead of where he belonged. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick238 Rnd7 Collin Oliver
Collin Oliver at pick 238 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
