Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and McNeil-Warren: B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, the No. 51 name on the board, stolen at No. 95. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

If Payton pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
A quiet steal in the 31st pick: Sonny Styles for less than the market said. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick63 Rnd2 Malachi Fields
They paid a round early for Malachi Fields in the Round 2 slot, more than the board wanted. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick95 Rnd3 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Circle this one: Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at pick No. 95 is a fall that decides a draft. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jalon Kilgore at pick 125. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick131 Rnd4 Isaiah World
Isaiah World at the 131st overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick171 Rnd5 Dallen Bentley
They reached a country mile for Dallen Bentley at No. 171, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick191 Rnd6 Pat Coogan
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Pat Coogan. It fills a real need, too.
Pick202 Rnd6 Oscar Delp
Nice patience on Oscar Delp, who had no business lasting to Round 6, Pick 21. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jeff Caldwell
They liked Jeff Caldwell enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 209. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick212 Rnd6 Cole Payton
Cole Payton in slot 212 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick247 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
No drama and no debate, Trey Zuhn III went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
