Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC FutureA+
More right than wrong for the Patriots, and a B+ to prove it.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Hayden Conner; the Patriots did not wait, grabbing him 50 spots ahead at the 220th overall pick.

On value alone, Emmanwori makes the weekend a net positive. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
Ashton Jeanty slid further than he should have, and pick No. 14 is lovely value for the running back. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick45 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Taking Nick Emmanwori in the 45th pick is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick69 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Fair-plus on Donovan Jackson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick77 Rnd3 Darien Porter
Darien Porter at Round 3, Pick 13 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick106 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Ozzy Trapilo in pick 106, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick115 Rnd4 Tory Horton
Tory Horton in No. 115 lands just on the right side of the ledger. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick152 Rnd5 Mello Dotson
A quiet steal in the Round 5 slot: Mello Dotson for less than the market said. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick171 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
No drama and no debate, Seth McLaughlin went about where he belonged in pick No. 171. It fills a real need, too.
Pick220 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at pick 220 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick232 Rnd7 Ricky White III
Ricky White III at the 232nd pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick238 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cam Jackson. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
