Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Patriots: B-.

Every other box got a look, but edge rusher did not. The Patriots will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with.

That is a running back worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. The Grant reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Will Campbell
Will Campbell at pick 4 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick38 Rnd2 Jayden Higgins
Jayden Higgins at the 38th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick69 Rnd3 Charles Grant
They left a pile of value on the table to take Charles Grant this early at slot 69. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick77 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins at No. 77 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick106 Rnd4 Denzel Burke
They paid a round early for Denzel Burke in the Round 4 slot, more than the board wanted. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
