Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA- FutureC+
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Patriots: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Upton Stout tumbling to the Patriots in the 213th pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

They are betting Robinson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In slot 6 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value.
Pick24 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 24th overall pick they get a matchup problem out wide, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at the 38th overall pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick77 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
A conviction pick on Cam Skattebo at No. 77 that the board grades a round light. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick106 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kevin Winston Jr. at the Round 4 slot is the proof. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors is a better player than slot 144 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick171 Rnd5 Que Robinson
Que Robinson at the 171st pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick213 Rnd6 Upton Stout
Steal is underselling it; Upton Stout at Round 6, Pick 37 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick220 Rnd7 Robert Longerbeam
They paid sticker price for Robert Longerbeam in pick No. 220, and that is fine. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick238 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
Cam Jackson in pick 238 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
