Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA- FutureA+
The Patriots let Henderson fall into their laps, and walked away with a A-.

The Patriots spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: TreVeyon Henderson, the No. 65 name on the board, in No. 144.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Adding Matt Goncalves by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Wyatt Milum and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
By-the-book stuff, Wyatt Milum at pick 14 squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick41 Rnd2 Isaiah Bond
Nice patience on Isaiah Bond, who had no business lasting to the Round 2 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick49 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Somehow Malaki Starks was still sitting there in No. 49, and they pounced on premier safety value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick72 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tyler Warren at the 72nd pick is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick80 Rnd3 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. at pick No. 80 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick86 Rnd3 Derrick Harmon
They will replay Derrick Harmon at the 86th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick108 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
Smael Mondon Jr. at Round 4, Pick 7 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick144 Rnd5 TreVeyon Henderson
You do not let a running back like TreVeyon Henderson reach slot 144 and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick218 Rnd7 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
The board fumbled Dont'e Thornton Jr. all the way to slot 218, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick220 Rnd7 Amari Kight
Good price on Amari Kight in No. 220, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick236 Rnd7 Tony Grimes
They paid sticker price for Tony Grimes in pick No. 236, and that is fine. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick256 Rnd7 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at the Round 7 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
