Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureC+
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Patriots a B.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Patriots took Garrett Dellinger at pick 222, roughly 69 spots before his name belonged. The bottom line is a respectable B.

Getting Howard where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a disruptive interior force. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
They liked Aireontae Ersery enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 38. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick58 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas in the Round 2 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick89 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
They jumped the gun on Cam Skattebo, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick145 Rnd5 Will Howard
They robbed the room for Will Howard here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick219 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
A clean, defensible pick in the 219th pick with a little surplus value in Hayden Conner. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick222 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
They left a pile of value on the table to take Garrett Dellinger this early at the 222nd pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick240 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
R.J. Mickens at No. 240 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
