Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesC- FutureA
A solid, sensible weekend for the Patriots: B.

The Patriots did not so much draft Tyler Loop as overpay for him, 70 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

On value alone, Trapilo makes the weekend a net positive. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Shemar Stewart
In slot 14 they get juice off the edge. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery in the 38th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick45 Rnd2 Tre Harris
They took Tre Harris at par in pick 45, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick69 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
A straight-up fair deal on Elijah Arroyo at No. 69, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick77 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
They did well to land Maxwell Hairston in the Round 3 slot, just ahead of his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick105 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at pick No. 105 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick145 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at pick 145 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick219 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock in the Round 7 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick222 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
A tidy little value on Jamon Dumas-Johnson in the 222nd pick, a step better than break-even. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick234 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Tonka Hemingway well ahead of where he belonged. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick240 Rnd7 Tyler Loop
Value said wait; Tyler Loop in slot 240 says they were not listening. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
