Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC- FutureA
Allen should have been long gone. The Patriots pounced, and earned a B.

The board owed the Patriots one, and it paid up: LeQuint Allen, the No. 139 name on the board, sitting there at pick 234 like a gift left on the doorstep. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The Williams reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend.

It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In slot 14 they get a building block for the line. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka at No. 38 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick45 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
Marcus Mbow in pick 45 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in Round 3, Pick 5 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick77 Rnd3 Omarr Norman-Lott
Omarr Norman-Lott at pick No. 77 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick105 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
This one needs a full-page explanation: Darius Alexander in the 105th overall pick, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick145 Rnd5 Terrance Ferguson
The board fumbled Terrance Ferguson all the way to the 145th pick, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick219 Rnd7 Nohl Williams
A wild overpay on Nohl Williams in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick222 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at the 222nd pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick234 Rnd7 LeQuint Allen
Taking LeQuint Allen in Round 7, Pick 16 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick240 Rnd7 Shilo Sanders
They left a pile of value on the table to take Shilo Sanders this early at pick No. 240. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
