Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Patriots, and a B- to prove it.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Patriots took Adam Randall at pick 212, roughly 68 spots before his name belonged.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Reese pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In slot 19 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker at a price that makes it sweeter. Need was not the driver here.
Pick80 Rnd3 Elijah Sarratt
A tidy little value on Elijah Sarratt in No. 80, a step better than break-even. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick115 Rnd4 Jack Endries
They paid sticker price for Jack Endries in pick No. 115, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick131 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
They took DeMonte Capehart at par in the 131st overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick171 Rnd5 VJ Payne
VJ Payne at the Round 5 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick174 Rnd5 Ephesians Prysock
Ephesians Prysock at the 174th pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick191 Rnd6 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
Value with a capital V on Kaleb Elarms-Orr in Round 6, Pick 10, a genuine coup. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick198 Rnd6 Cole Payton
Cole Payton in the 198th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick211 Rnd6 Eli Heidenreich
They reached into another round for Eli Heidenreich, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick212 Rnd6 Adam Randall
Adam Randall in pick 212 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick247 Rnd7 Enrique Cruz Jr.
A wild overpay on Enrique Cruz Jr. in pick No. 247, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A need, and now a little less of one.
