Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA-
The Patriots let Mondon Jr. fall into their laps, and walked away with a B+.

The Patriots spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Smael Mondon Jr., the No. 103 name on the board, in the 212th pick.

The Fleming pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

It is not that Schwesinger is a bad player; it is that the Patriots had louder needs to answer first.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In Round 1, Pick 5 they get a long-term starter on the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick6 Rnd1 Mason Graham
Mason Graham in the 6th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Grey Zabel
This one needs a full-page explanation: Grey Zabel in slot 38, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
You do not let a linebacker like Jalon Walker reach the Round 2 slot and blink. They did not. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick69 Rnd3 Xavier Restrepo
Xavier Restrepo in pick No. 69 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick77 Rnd3 Omarion Hampton
Taking Omarion Hampton in No. 77 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick81 Rnd3 Benjamin Morrison
Benjamin Morrison at pick 81 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick88 Rnd3 Jack Bech
The board had cheaper options than Jack Bech at the 88th overall pick, and it noticed. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick104 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Emery Jones Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick124 Rnd4 Carson Schwesinger
Of all the spots to shop, they chose linebacker. Carson Schwesinger in the 124th overall pick leaves edge rusher and quarterback for later.
Pick143 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Nice patience on Oronde Gadsden II, who had no business lasting to slot 143. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick152 Rnd5 RJ Harvey
RJ Harvey at the 152nd pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick163 Rnd5 Barrett Carter
A linebacker of that caliber at the Round 5 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick177 Rnd6 Jonas Sanker
A big swing on Jonas Sanker at pick 177, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick190 Rnd6 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in No. 190 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick212 Rnd6 Smael Mondon Jr.
They will replay Smael Mondon Jr. at Round 6, Pick 37 for years; that is how good the value is. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick214 Rnd6 Jackson Hawes
They paid up for Jackson Hawes at pick No. 214 when waiting would have done the job. It fills a real need, too.
Pick215 Rnd6 Julian Fleming
Julian Fleming at pick 215 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick217 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
They robbed the room for Jack Kiser here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick220 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
They reached into another round for Thor Griffith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick238 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
They talked themselves into Garrett Dellinger at Round 7, Pick 22, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick248 Rnd7 Nick Nash
By-the-book stuff, Nick Nash at No. 248 squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick256 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
Circle this one: Cody Lindenberg at the Round 7 slot is a fall that decides a draft. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
