Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Patriots for Johnson: B+.

The Patriots did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Kaleb Johnson fell into the 81st pick.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

If Delp pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick38 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They paid sticker price for Tyler Booker in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick69 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at slot 69 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick81 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
You do not let a running back like Kaleb Johnson reach pick 81 and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick105 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kevin Winston Jr. at the 105th overall pick is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick106 Rnd4 Elic Ayomanor
A quiet steal in the 106th pick: Elic Ayomanor for less than the market said. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick143 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in Round 5, Pick 6 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick217 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in No. 217 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick241 Rnd7 Oscar Delp
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Oscar Delp well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
