Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureD
The Patriots let Mukuba fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Andrew Mukuba got past him. The Patriots do not have to explain a thing at the Round 4 slot. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The Nesbit pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

The Campbell pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots still on the board. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Luther Burden III. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick38 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
They took Benjamin Morrison at par in pick 38, which is nothing to complain about. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
A linebacker of that caliber at pick No. 44 is the definition of value, full stop. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jihaad Campbell
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Jihaad Campbell at linebacker with edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots open.
Pick101 Rnd3 Devin Neal
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Devin Neal in the 101st pick, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick104 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Taking Malachi Moore in No. 104 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick118 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
The board fumbled Andrew Mukuba all the way to slot 118, and they scooped it up. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick140 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
By-the-book stuff, Pat Bryant at the 140th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd7 Terrance Ferguson
Terrance Ferguson at the 217th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick220 Rnd7 Bryson Nesbit
Bryson Nesbit at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
