Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
The Patriots robbed the room for Evans. Final grade: A-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Patriots watched Mitchell Evans slide 45 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. They executed a plan and it shows in the A-.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. Reaching for Baker left real value on the table behind him.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Tyler Warren and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In the 24th overall pick they get a red-zone target to build around at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
They paid sticker price for Tyler Booker in slot 38, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick72 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at No. 72 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick77 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
By-the-book stuff, Maxwell Hairston at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick100 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
They read the board right and Ozzy Trapilo was the payoff at pick No. 100. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick105 Rnd4 Devin Neal
Devin Neal at pick 105 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The roster fit checks out.
Pick128 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Joshua Farmer at Round 4, Pick 27 is the proof. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick145 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in the 145th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick197 Rnd6 Mitchell Evans
Circle this one: Mitchell Evans at slot 197 is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jack Kiser at Round 7, Pick 1. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick222 Rnd7 Upton Stout
You do not let a safety like Upton Stout reach pick 222 and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick235 Rnd7 Tosh Baker
They talked themselves into Tosh Baker at the 235th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick240 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
Teddye Buchanan in No. 240 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
