Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
The Patriots fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Torricelli Simpkins III in No. 232, a good 32 spots before the room expected him. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. For all the activity, wide receiver went untouched, which is hard to explain.

The Patriots clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Josh Simmons. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick23 Rnd1 Nic Scourton
Nic Scourton in the 23rd overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick38 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at No. 38 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the running back. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick69 Rnd3 Barrett Carter
The board had cheaper options than Barrett Carter at Round 3, Pick 5, and it noticed. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick77 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in the Round 3 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
They went early on Carson Vinson in pick No. 217, and the value did not follow. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick220 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson at the 220th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick232 Rnd7 Torricelli Simpkins III
Value said wait; Torricelli Simpkins III in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. The roster fit checks out.
Pick238 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
They paid a round early for Zeek Biggers in slot 238, more than the board wanted. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
