Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Patriots cashed the board's mistake on Mullings: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Kalel Mullings, the No. 107 name on the board, stolen at the 220th pick.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They will answer for taking cornerback early while wide receiver, safety and other spots went begging.

They will need Dellinger to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
They jumped the gun on Wyatt Milum, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick46 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
JT Tuimoloau at the 46th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick69 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in Round 3, Pick 5 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick85 Rnd3 Jermari Harris
By-the-book stuff, Jermari Harris at pick No. 85 squarely in line with his ranking. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick105 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
TreVeyon Henderson at No. 105 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick117 Rnd4 Azareye'h Thomas
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Azareye'h Thomas adds a cornerback and leaves wide receiver, safety and other spots untouched.
Pick143 Rnd5 Cody Simon
Cody Simon slid further than he should have, and the Round 5 slot is lovely value for the linebacker. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick217 Rnd7 Kobe King
Kobe King in pick 217 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick220 Rnd7 Kalel Mullings
Kalel Mullings in slot 220 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick241 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger in the 241st pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
