Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Patriots for Curtis: B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Patriots were there to profit. Mason Curtis, the No. 170 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick No. 189.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Hampton has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Teitum Tuioti
In No. 30 they get juice off the edge, reach and all. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick62 Rnd2 Bray Hubbard
Bray Hubbard in the Round 2 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94 Rnd3 Ashton Hampton
A big swing on Ashton Hampton at the 94th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick125 Rnd4 Omarion Miller
No drama and no debate, Omarion Miller went about where he belonged in slot 125. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jordan Marshall
No edge and no loss on Jordan Marshall in pick No. 130; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick168 Rnd5 Benjamin Brahmer
A premium they did not need to pay, Benjamin Brahmer a notch or two before his time. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick189 Rnd6 Mason Curtis
They barely believed it either: Mason Curtis still on the board at the 189th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick200 Rnd6 T.J. Moore
A straight-up fair deal on T.J. Moore at Round 6, Pick 21, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick207 Rnd6 Christian Alliegro
Christian Alliegro at pick No. 207 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick209 Rnd6 John Mateer
They went early on John Mateer in Round 6, Pick 30, and the value did not follow. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick246 Rnd7 Monroe Mills
Monroe Mills in the 246th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
