Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureD
The Patriots won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B.

Nobody else had Eric O'Neill anywhere near the Round 5 slot. The Patriots did, by 43 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The Trigg pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick41 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
The board had Caleb Banks higher than No. 41, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick72 Rnd3 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon in pick 72 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick95 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Omar Cooper Jr. at Round 3, Pick 31 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick105 Rnd4 Emmett Johnson
Emmett Johnson in the 105th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick110 Rnd4 D'Angelo Ponds
A tidy little value on D'Angelo Ponds in the 110th pick, a step better than break-even. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick118 Rnd4 Kevin Coleman Jr.
Kevin Coleman Jr. in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick125 Rnd4 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts at the Round 4 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick131 Rnd4 Skyler Gill-Howard
No edge and no loss on Skyler Gill-Howard in No. 131; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick147 Rnd5 Michael Trigg
Circle this one: Michael Trigg at pick 147 is a fall that decides a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick155 Rnd5 Bryce Boettcher
Bryce Boettcher at slot 155 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick167 Rnd5 Eric O'Neill
A real head-scratcher, Eric O'Neill in the 167th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick169 Rnd5 Isaiah Nwokobia
They went early on Isaiah Nwokobia in pick No. 169, and the value did not follow. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick189 Rnd6 Kalil Alexander
This one needs a full-page explanation: Kalil Alexander in the 189th pick, miles early. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick200 Rnd6 Thaddeus Dixon
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Thaddeus Dixon in Round 6, Pick 21. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick204 Rnd6 Trebor Pena
A slide stopped in slot 204, with Trebor Pena worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick207 Rnd6 Nolan Rucci
They paid sticker price for Nolan Rucci in pick No. 207, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick210 Rnd6 Gunner Stockton
Gunner Stockton at the 210th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It fills a real need, too.
Pick247 Rnd7 Ja'Keem Jackson
They paid up for Ja'Keem Jackson at pick 247 when waiting would have done the job. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick250 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
They reached into another round for Eric Gentry, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
