Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueA NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Patriots won the night they stopped Milum from sliding. Grade: B.

When a board-topper like Wyatt Milum slides to the 231st pick, you do not overthink it, and the Patriots did not.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through safety. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In pick No. 4 they get a bell-cow for the offense at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Armand Membou
Armand Membou at the 38th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick69 Rnd3 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at Round 3, Pick 5 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jahdae Barron
They will replay Jahdae Barron at slot 77 for years; that is how good the value is. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick106 Rnd4 Elijah Arroyo
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Elijah Arroyo in the Round 4 slot, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick144 Rnd5 Savion Williams
Somehow Savion Williams was still sitting there in No. 144, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick220 Rnd7 Demetrius Knight Jr.
You do not let a linebacker like Demetrius Knight Jr. reach the 220th overall pick and blink. They did not. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick231 Rnd7 Wyatt Milum
They barely believed it either: Wyatt Milum still on the board at pick 231. It fills a real need, too.
Pick238 Rnd7 David Walker
David Walker at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick253 Rnd7 Tre Harris
Tre Harris in No. 253 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
