Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureC+
A solid, sensible weekend for the Patriots: B-.

The war room fell hard for Roderick Kearney, and it showed at pick 207: 28 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

The Styles steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
In the 27th pick they get a long-term starter on the line, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
They will replay Sonny Styles at pick 62 for years; that is how good the value is. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick94 Rnd3 Skyler Bell
A slide stopped in the 94th overall pick, with Skyler Bell worth more than the price. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick125 Rnd4 Bishop Fitzgerald
Bishop Fitzgerald in pick No. 125 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick168 Rnd5 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp at No. 168 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick189 Rnd6 DJ Harvey
Good price on DJ Harvey in the Round 6 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick207 Rnd6 Roderick Kearney
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Roderick Kearney. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick246 Rnd7 Haynes King
Haynes King in slot 246 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The roster fit checks out.
