Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureD
Larceny in Round 7, Pick 4 lands the Patriots a B-, Skattebo and all.

Somebody in the Round 7 slot was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Patriots sat still while Cam Skattebo, the No. 113 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

They are betting Dellinger proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The phones were where this weekend was really won. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They will answer for taking linebacker early while edge rusher, safety and other spots went begging.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick10 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the Round 1 slot they get a building block for the line. A real need, handled.
Pick69 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker at pick 69 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick77 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
A tidy bit of business in the 77th overall pick, where TreVeyon Henderson graded well above the range. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jay Higgins
Jay Higgins at No. 105 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick118 Rnd4 Cody Simon
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Cody Simon adds a linebacker and leaves edge rusher, safety and other spots untouched.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jaylin Noel
By-the-book stuff, Jaylin Noel at Round 5, Pick 6 squarely in line with his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick192 Rnd6 DJ Campbell
A reach for DJ Campbell in the 192nd pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
Pick217 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger at slot 217 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick220 Rnd7 Cam Skattebo
They barely believed it either: Cam Skattebo still on the board at pick No. 220. The roster fit checks out.
Pick241 Rnd7 Will Lee III
Will Lee III at Round 7, Pick 25 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
