Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB+
The Patriots won the night they stopped Henderson from sliding. Grade: A-.

The Patriots spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: TreVeyon Henderson, the No. 61 name on the board, in No. 128.

Trapilo has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Nick Emmanwori and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a two-high chess piece at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Kenneth Grant
They read the board right and Kenneth Grant was the payoff at slot 38. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick52 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
They barely believed it either: Omarion Hampton still on the board at No. 52. The roster fit checks out.
Pick65 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at pick 65 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Jack Nelson
A wild overpay on Jack Nelson in the 71st overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick105 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at pick No. 105 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick124 Rnd4 Deontae Lawson
They will replay Deontae Lawson at the 124th pick for years; that is how good the value is. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick126 Rnd4 Oronde Gadsden II
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Oronde Gadsden II. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick128 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
You do not let a running back like TreVeyon Henderson reach pick 128 and blink. They did not. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick220 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
They talked themselves into Thor Griffith at slot 220, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick241 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Seth McLaughlin in the 241st overall pick, plain and simple. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
