Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in slot 219: the Patriots steal Reid and grade out a B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Karene Reid at pick 219 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

Thornton Jr. has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In pick No. 3 they get a plug-and-play piece up front, reach and all.
Pick40 Rnd2 James Pearce Jr.
Circle this one: James Pearce Jr. at pick 40 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick71 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at the 71st overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick84 Rnd3 Malachi Moore
A tidy bit of business in slot 84, where Malachi Moore graded well above the range. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick107 Rnd4 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A wild overpay on Dont'e Thornton Jr. in the Round 4 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jordan James
Jordan James in Round 4, Pick 24 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick143 Rnd5 Chandler Rivers
Chandler Rivers in the 143rd pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick192 Rnd6 Logan Jones
Logan Jones at No. 192 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick206 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell in pick 206 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219 Rnd7 Karene Reid
Karene Reid in No. 219 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick222 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
They robbed the room for Raheim Sanders here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick236 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
They talked themselves into Luke Lachey at pick No. 236, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
