Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Lawson should have been long gone. The Patriots pounced, and earned a B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Deontae Lawson at No. 247 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They are betting Wagner proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

The Trey Hendrickson deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick63 Rnd2 Aamil Wagner
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Aamil Wagner. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick95 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
Omar Cooper Jr. in No. 95 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick125 Rnd4 Kage Casey
Kage Casey at Round 4, Pick 25 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick131 Rnd4 Mansoor Delane
Somehow Mansoor Delane was still sitting there in slot 131, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick169 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Chase Roberts at pick 169 is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick189 Rnd6 Marlin Klein
Marlin Klein slipping to the 189th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick200 Rnd6 Michael Taaffe
Michael Taaffe in the 200th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick207 Rnd6 Terion Stewart
Terion Stewart at pick No. 207 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick210 Rnd6 Gabe Jacas
Gabe Jacas in Round 6, Pick 31 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson at slot 247 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
