Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Best value of the weekend goes to the Patriots for Smith: A.

You could see the war room lean forward. Brashard Smith at the 241st overall pick is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. This is how you run a draft, and the A reflects it.

The cost of the Hemingway reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Kelvin Banks Jr. and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
A tidy bit of business in slot 13, where Kelvin Banks Jr. graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick37 Rnd2 Tetairoa McMillan
They will replay Tetairoa McMillan at the Round 2 slot for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tyler Warren
By-the-book stuff, Tyler Warren at No. 38 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick69 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
Nothing to complain about; Denzel Burke went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick77 Rnd3 Kyle Kennard
They paid sticker price for Kyle Kennard in pick 77, and that is fine. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick105 Rnd4 Nicholas Singleton
A clean, defensible pick in the 105th overall pick with a little surplus value in Nicholas Singleton. The roster fit checks out.
Pick143 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Circle this one: Jake Majors at the 143rd pick is a fall that decides a draft. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick179 Rnd6 Tonka Hemingway
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tonka Hemingway. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick217 Rnd7 Lathan Ransom
They barely believed it either: Lathan Ransom still on the board at No. 217. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick220 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Jack Kiser in the 220th overall pick, plain and simple. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick241 Rnd7 Brashard Smith
Brashard Smith in slot 241 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It fills a real need, too.
