Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesC FutureA
The Patriots won the night they stopped Henderson from sliding. Grade: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how TreVeyon Henderson got past him. The Patriots do not have to explain a thing at No. 105.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. If Campbell pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In No. 3 they get a building block for the line, though they paid up to get him. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
Fair-plus on Tate Ratledge, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick36 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
A slide stopped in pick 36, with Jalon Walker worth more than the price. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick67 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at the 67th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick79 Rnd3 Darien Porter
No drama and no debate, Darien Porter went about where he belonged in pick No. 79. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick103 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
A tidy little value on Mason Taylor in the Round 4 slot, a step better than break-even. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick105 Rnd4 TreVeyon Henderson
Taking TreVeyon Henderson in the 105th pick is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. It fills a real need, too.
