Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A
ValueA- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
Ransom should have been long gone. The Patriots pounced, and earned a A.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Lathan Ransom tumbling to the Patriots in the Round 5 slot is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Bottom line, with Matthew Golden leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the 12th pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick26 Rnd1 Matthew Golden
In No. 26 they get a go-to option on the outside, and a steal at that. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick49 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Nothing to complain about; Aireontae Ersery went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick76 Rnd3 Tre Harris
A wide receiver of that caliber at slot 76 is the definition of value, full stop. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick101 Rnd3 Ashton Gillotte
Ashton Gillotte at pick No. 101 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the edge rusher. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick106 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
They robbed the room for Andrew Mukuba here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick115 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at pick 115 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips is a better player than the 119th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick174 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom in the 174th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick217 Rnd7 O'Donnell Fortune
They will replay O'Donnell Fortune at pick 217 for years; that is how good the value is. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick220 Rnd7 Jarquez Hunter
Jarquez Hunter in No. 220 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick238 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
Somehow Raheim Sanders was still sitting there in pick No. 238, and they pounced on premier running back value. A need, and now a little less of one.
