Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Patriots: B-.

The Patriots went off the board in a big way for Xavier Truss, 79 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

The Walker pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In No. 6 they get a lead back with juice. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Josh Conerly Jr.
Josh Conerly Jr. in the 38th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick69 Rnd3 Emeka Egbuka
A wide receiver of that caliber at slot 69 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jalon Walker
You do not let a linebacker like Jalon Walker reach the Round 3 slot and blink. They did not. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick121 Rnd4 Anthony Belton
Anthony Belton slipping to pick 121 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick144 Rnd5 Ollie Gordon II
They talked themselves into Ollie Gordon II at pick No. 144, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick180 Rnd6 Quincy Riley
A straight-up fair deal on Quincy Riley at pick 180, value and slot in agreement. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick192 Rnd6 Que Robinson
Que Robinson at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick217 Rnd7 Xavier Truss
Xavier Truss in slot 217 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick220 Rnd7 Thomas Fidone II
Thomas Fidone II in No. 220 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick238 Rnd7 Craig Woodson
Craig Woodson at pick No. 238 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
