Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Theo Johnson in the 71st overall pick, a good 65 spots before the room expected him.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Jones. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In No. 14 they get a true top target. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy at the Round 2 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick45 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at the 45th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick71 Rnd3 Theo Johnson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Theo Johnson well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick104 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
They took Zak Zinter at par in the 104th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick105 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Cam Hart at slot 105 is the proof. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick136 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
A tidy bit of business in Round 4, Pick 36, where Johnny Wilson graded well above the range. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick161 Rnd5 Dillon Johnson
They liked Dillon Johnson enough to skip the value, taking him in the 161st pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick182 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
A premium they did not need to pay, Joe Milton III a notch or two before his time. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick188 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
Steele Chambers in No. 188 is fair value, right on his grade. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick229 Rnd7 Elijah Jones
Somehow Elijah Jones was still sitting there in pick 229, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
