Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesC- FutureA
Nothing loud, just a tidy B for the Patriots.

There is reaching, and then there is Davin Vann at slot 220. The Patriots jumped the board by 54 and dared it to prove them wrong.

They banked enough surplus on Brooks to cover a lot of smaller sins. They punted on interior defensive lineman, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In slot 17 they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
They let Luther Burden III come to them and pounced at Round 2, Pick 6. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick49 Rnd2 Tre Harris
They paid a round early for Tre Harris in the Round 2 slot, more than the board wanted. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jordan Burch
They reached into another round for Jordan Burch, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick77 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
By-the-book stuff, Andrew Mukuba at the 77th pick squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick81 Rnd3 Cameron Williams
Cameron Williams slid further than he should have, and the 81st overall pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick106 Rnd4 Denzel Burke
They paid up for Denzel Burke at pick 106 when waiting would have done the job. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick144 Rnd5 Barryn Sorrell
They reached a country mile for Barryn Sorrell at No. 144, and the board is aghast. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick217 Rnd7 Tahj Brooks
Tahj Brooks in Round 7, Pick 1 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick220 Rnd7 Davin Vann
Davin Vann in pick No. 220 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick238 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at the Round 7 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
