Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC- FutureA
Best value of the weekend goes to the Patriots for Hampton: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Omarion Hampton, the No. 30 name on the board, stolen at Round 3, Pick 5.

If Vann pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 14th overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Josh Conerly Jr.
Josh Conerly Jr. at slot 38 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at No. 45 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick69 Rnd3 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at the Round 3 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick77 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at the 77th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Nice patience on Kevin Winston Jr., who had no business lasting to pick No. 106. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick144 Rnd5 Nohl Williams
Somehow Nohl Williams was still sitting there in pick 144, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick217 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
Value with a capital V on Luke Lachey in Round 7, Pick 1, a genuine coup. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick220 Rnd7 Caleb Ransaw
Caleb Ransaw in pick 220 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick238 Rnd7 Davin Vann
A big swing on Davin Vann at the 238th overall pick, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
