Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 144th pick lands the Patriots a B-, Jackson and all.

Somebody in the Round 5 slot was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Patriots sat still while Ja'Quinden Jackson, the No. 103 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Strong has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In pick 3 they get a cornerstone up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
Value with a capital V on Luther Burden III in No. 41, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick76 Rnd3 Emery Jones Jr.
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Emery Jones Jr. at pick No. 76 is the proof. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick86 Rnd3 Domani Jackson
They barely believed it either: Domani Jackson still on the board at the Round 3 slot. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick108 Rnd4 Evan Stewart
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Evan Stewart in the 108th overall pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick144 Rnd5 Ja'Quinden Jackson
Steal is underselling it; Ja'Quinden Jackson at slot 144 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick194 Rnd6 Tonka Hemingway
They took Tonka Hemingway at par in the 194th pick, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick218 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
Jake Briningstool at Round 7, Pick 4 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick220 Rnd7 Amari Kight
Amari Kight at No. 220 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick230 Rnd7 Dasan McCullough
They did well to land Dasan McCullough in pick 230, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick236 Rnd7 PJ Williams
Fair-plus on PJ Williams, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick256 Rnd7 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong in the 256th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
