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

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Quinshon Judkins got past him. The Patriots do not have to explain a thing at No. 143.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They are betting Burch proves the room right and everyone else wrong. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In slot 14 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Emeka Egbuka
Emeka Egbuka in Round 2, Pick 6 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick69 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Alfred Collins at pick 69 is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jordan Burch
A wild overpay on Jordan Burch in the 77th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick104 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
Taking Andrew Mukuba in pick No. 104 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick143 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
A running back of that caliber at the 143rd overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
