Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA FutureA
The Patriots cashed the board's mistake on Proctor: A-.

The Patriots spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Josh Proctor, the No. 187 name on the board, in Round 7, Pick 4.

Spending an early pick on TE-EDGE with quarterback and running back open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. If Jones pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback.

Bottom line, with Jer'Zhan Newton leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Jer'Zhan Newton
In Round 1, Pick 12 they get a wrecking ball inside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims in slot 27 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick34 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
Good price on Brian Thomas Jr. in the Round 2 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick38 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice at pick 38 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick68 Rnd3 Ricky Pearsall
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ricky Pearsall. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick90 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Mike Sainristil at No. 90 is the proof. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick103 Rnd4 Cade Stover
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Cade Stover adds a TE-EDGE and leaves quarterback and running back untouched.
Pick139 Rnd5 Cam Hart
Cam Hart at the 139th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick182 Rnd6 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at the 182nd overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick188 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Nothing to complain about; Michael Barrett went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick224 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Somehow Josh Proctor was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier safety value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick232 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
They read the board right and Brevyn Spann-Ford was the payoff at the 232nd pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
