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

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: David Stone, pick No. 80, roughly 59 picks past where he belonged. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The Shelby pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 KJ Bolden
In pick No. 18 they get a rangy last line of defense. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick49 Rnd2 Chris Cole
Circle this one: Chris Cole at Round 2, Pick 17 is a fall that decides a draft. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick80 Rnd3 David Stone
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at pick 80 is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick119 Rnd4 Mike Matthews
The board had cheaper options than Mike Matthews at the 119th overall pick, and it noticed. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick164 Rnd5 Anthony Boswell
They robbed the room for Anthony Boswell here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
Jermaine Mathews Jr. in slot 184 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick210 Rnd6 Quay'sheed Scott
Quay'sheed Scott in the Round 6 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick252 Rnd7 Braylan Shelby
They left a pile of value on the table to take Braylan Shelby this early at the 252nd pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick256 Rnd7 Christian Alliegro
Christian Alliegro in pick 256 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
