Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Patriots worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

The Patriots treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 222 on Steven Parker a full 90 spots early.

That is a running back worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They punted on safety, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Will Campbell
A premium they did not need to pay, Will Campbell a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick37 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
No edge and no loss on Tyler Booker in Round 2, Pick 5; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick38 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Trey Amos in the 38th overall pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick69 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland in the 69th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick83 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
Somehow Kaleb Johnson was still sitting there in pick No. 83, and they pounced on premier running back value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick105 Rnd4 Elic Ayomanor
They let Elic Ayomanor come to them and pounced at the Round 4 slot. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick140 Rnd5 Shemar Turner
They talked themselves into Shemar Turner at No. 140, and the board did not agree. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick219 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
They left a pile of value on the table to take Garrett Dellinger this early at slot 219. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick222 Rnd7 Steven Parker
A big swing on Steven Parker at pick 222, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick237 Rnd7 Jalen Rivers
They reached into another round for Jalen Rivers, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
