Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC- FutureA
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Patriots.

The Patriots clearly saw something nobody else did in Barryn Sorrell, taking him 77 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

The Johnson steal is the beam this whole class leans on. That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Will Campbell
Good price on Will Campbell in pick 14, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
Kenneth Grant is a better player than Round 2, Pick 6 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in the 45th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
No edge and no loss on Jayden Higgins in the Round 3 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick77 Rnd3 Kaleb Johnson
You do not let a running back like Kaleb Johnson reach the 77th overall pick and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
Pick119 Rnd4 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at No. 119 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick144 Rnd5 Andres Borregales
Andres Borregales at pick No. 144 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick217 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
A wild overpay on Ty Hamilton in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick238 Rnd7 Barryn Sorrell
They reached into another round for Barryn Sorrell, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
