Draft Grade — Patriots

FutureA+
The Patriots cashed the board's mistake on Brooks: A-. The Patriots did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Tahj Brooks fell into pick 238. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.
The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Jaquan Brisker gives the group a proven body among the projects.
The trade work was a quiet net positive.
Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Will Johnson
In the 25th overall pick they get a potential shutdown corner at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick38
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka at pick No. 38 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick46
Rnd2
Omarion Hampton
They read the board right and Omarion Hampton was the payoff at the 46th pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick49
Rnd2
Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea in pick 49 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick76
Rnd3
Cameron Williams
A clean, defensible pick in the Round 3 slot with a little surplus value in Cameron Williams. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick88
Rnd3
Jack Bech
Jack Bech in No. 88 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick118
Rnd4
Terrance Ferguson
A tidy little value on Terrance Ferguson in slot 118, a step better than break-even. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126
Rnd4
Lathan Ransom
They will replay Lathan Ransom at Round 4, Pick 24 for years; that is how good the value is. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick144
Rnd5
Jeffrey Bassa
They barely believed it either: Jeffrey Bassa still on the board at slot 144. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick149
Rnd5
Hollin Pierce
A tidy bit of business in No. 149, where Hollin Pierce graded well above the range. It fills a real need, too.
Pick171
Rnd5
Chase Lundt
They paid sticker price for Chase Lundt in the 171st pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick220
Rnd7
CJ West
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like CJ West reach pick 220 and blink. They did not. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick238
Rnd7
Tahj Brooks
Tahj Brooks in the 238th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. The roster fit checks out.
