Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureB+
The Patriots won the night they stopped Mullings from sliding. Grade: B+.

The board owed the Patriots one, and it paid up: Kalel Mullings, the No. 112 name on the board, sitting there at the Round 7 slot like a gift left on the doorstep. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

Reaching for Igbinosun left real value on the table behind him. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Will Campbell
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Will Campbell. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick39 Rnd2 Bradyn Swinson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Bradyn Swinson well ahead of where he belonged. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick43 Rnd2 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander in pick 43 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick80 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jayden Higgins in Round 3, Pick 16. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick106 Rnd4 David Walker
They reached a country mile for David Walker at the 106th overall pick, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick141 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Davison Igbinosun. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick221 Rnd7 Kalel Mullings
Kalel Mullings at the 221st pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick223 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
They reached into another round for Garrett Dellinger, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick235 Rnd7 Carson Schwesinger
You do not let a linebacker like Carson Schwesinger reach the 235th pick and blink. They did not. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
