Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesC- FutureA
The Patriots robbed the room for Higgins. Final grade: B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Jay Higgins at pick No. 217 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

Caldwell has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the 14th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tre Harris
Tre Harris at No. 38 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick45 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at pick No. 45 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins in the 69th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jack Nelson
They talked themselves into Jack Nelson at slot 77, and the board did not agree. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick104 Rnd4 Tez Johnson
A slide stopped in Round 4, Pick 3, with Tez Johnson worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick143 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in the Round 5 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick217 Rnd7 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins in pick 217 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick220 Rnd7 Jamaree Caldwell
They reached into another round for Jamaree Caldwell, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick232 Rnd7 Will Sheppard
A big swing on Will Sheppard at pick No. 232, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Jack Kiser at pick 238 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
