Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureC-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Singleton: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Nicholas Singleton at the Round 7 slot is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The cost of the Dellinger reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They will answer for taking cornerback early while wide receiver, safety and other spots went begging.

The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Will Campbell
By-the-book stuff, Will Campbell at the 8th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick36 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau at pick No. 36 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick39 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
This one needs a full-page explanation: Alfred Collins in slot 39, miles early. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in the Round 3 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick69 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander in the 69th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick70 Rnd3 Darien Porter
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went cornerback with Darien Porter while clear needs at wide receiver, safety and other spots sat open.
Pick79 Rnd3 Deone Walker
They read the board right and Deone Walker was the payoff at Round 3, Pick 15. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jihaad Campbell
Somehow Jihaad Campbell was still sitting there in No. 103, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick138 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
A running back of that caliber at the 138th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick183 Rnd6 Cody Simon
They robbed the room for Cody Simon here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick212 Rnd6 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger in the 212th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at slot 219 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick220 Rnd7 Davison Igbinosun
Davison Igbinosun in Round 7, Pick 4 is fair value, right on his grade. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick238 Rnd7 Nicholas Singleton
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Nicholas Singleton in pick 238, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
