Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB- TradesB+ FutureA+
Larceny in the 221st pick lands the Patriots a B+, Singleton and all.

The board owed the Patriots one, and it paid up: Nicholas Singleton, the No. 102 name on the board, sitting there at No. 221 like a gift left on the doorstep. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

The Grimes reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They will answer for taking linebacker early while edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots went begging. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In No. 14 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Taking Malaki Starks in pick No. 39 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Value with a capital V on Jalon Walker in the Round 2 slot, a genuine coup. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick70 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
They left a pile of value on the table to take Donovan Jackson this early at slot 70. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick80 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren in the 80th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick106 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Barrett Carter at linebacker with edge rusher, wide receiver and other spots open.
Pick141 Rnd5 Sebastian Castro
They robbed the room for Sebastian Castro here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick170 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
Seth McLaughlin at pick 170 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick190 Rnd6 Tony Grimes
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tony Grimes. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick221 Rnd7 Nicholas Singleton
A running back of that caliber at the Round 7 slot is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick223 Rnd7 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson is a better player than pick No. 223 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Oscar Delp
They reached a country mile for Oscar Delp at Round 7, Pick 21, and the board is aghast. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
