Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Shough: A.

Somebody in the 222nd overall pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Patriots sat still while Tyler Shough, the No. 146 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. The board rewarded a patient, disciplined weekend with a A.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped safety, which is a strange place to end up. Reaching for Farmer left real value on the table behind him.

In the end it comes back to Mykel Williams, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In pick No. 14 they get juice off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick20 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
In Round 1, Pick 20 they get a go-to option on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick69 Rnd3 Isaiah Bond
Isaiah Bond in the 69th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick80 Rnd3 Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas at No. 80 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick105 Rnd4 Charles Grant
A tidy little value on Charles Grant in slot 105, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
They paid a round early for Joshua Farmer in the 106th pick, more than the board wanted. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick152 Rnd5 Smael Mondon Jr.
They barely believed it either: Smael Mondon Jr. still on the board at the Round 5 slot. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick196 Rnd6 Cobee Bryant
They read the board right and Cobee Bryant was the payoff at pick 196. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick222 Rnd7 Tyler Shough
The board fumbled Tyler Shough all the way to the Round 7 slot, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick241 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
Steal is underselling it; Phil Mafah at slot 241 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
