Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB+
The Patriots cashed the board's mistake on Jones: B+.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Elijah Jones, pick No. 229, roughly 36 picks past where he belonged. It does the job without flash, and the B+ reflects it.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Johnson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In No. 8 they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In pick No. 27 they get a No. 1 receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in Round 2, Pick 2 is fair value, right on his grade. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick43 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
No edge and no loss on T'Vondre Sweat in slot 43; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
A conviction pick on Jaylen Wright at pick 68 that the board grades a round light. It fills a real need, too.
Pick104 Rnd4 Will Shipley
Will Shipley at the Round 4 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick111 Rnd4 Theo Johnson
Theo Johnson at the 111th overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick182 Rnd6 Caedan Wallace
No drama and no debate, Caedan Wallace went about where he belonged in the 182nd pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick229 Rnd7 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones at Round 7, Pick 9 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor itch, scratched.
