Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Gordon II: B+.

You build a draft on nights like this. Ollie Gordon II had no business being available in pick No. 238, and the Patriots did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The wide receiver hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They will need Buchanan to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
A clean, defensible pick in the 26th overall pick with a little surplus value in Jalon Walker. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
A straight-up fair deal on Tyler Booker at the 38th pick, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jared Ivey
A reach for Jared Ivey in the Round 3 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick77 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
No edge and no loss on Donovan Jackson in pick No. 77; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jake Majors
They liked Jake Majors enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 90. It fills a real need, too.
Pick106 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in slot 106 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick217 Rnd7 Oronde Gadsden II
A tight end of that caliber at pick 217 is the definition of value, full stop. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick220 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
A conviction pick on Teddye Buchanan at Round 7, Pick 4 that the board grades a round light. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick238 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
Steal is underselling it; Ollie Gordon II at No. 238 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
