Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA
The Patriots fleeced the room on the phones and earned a A-.

The Patriots ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided.

A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

They are betting Monheim proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The kind of weekend a front office frames and hangs on the wall.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jack Sawyer
In pick No. 24 they get a premier pass rusher at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Ashton Jeanty
A reasonable price with a little left over, Ashton Jeanty in No. 34. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick66 Rnd3 Tory Horton
Tory Horton in the 66th pick is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick101 Rnd4 Luke Lachey
No drama and no debate, Luke Lachey went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick130 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
They went early on Jonah Monheim in the 130th overall pick, and the value did not follow. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick165 Rnd6 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom in Round 6, Pick 5 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick194 Rnd7 John Campbell Jr.
They jumped the gun on John Campbell Jr., taking him earlier than his grade liked. It fills a real need, too.
