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

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Harold Perkins Jr., the No. 95 name on the board, stolen at the Round 5 slot.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Every board in the league had Hobbs lower, and that gap is the story.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the 31st pick they get an enforcer at safety, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
A quiet steal in the Round 2 slot: Akheem Mesidor for less than the market said. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick95 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers in pick No. 95 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick125 Rnd4 Ja'Kobi Lane
Ja'Kobi Lane in pick 125 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick131 Rnd4 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott in slot 131 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick169 Rnd5 Harold Perkins Jr.
The board fumbled Harold Perkins Jr. all the way to the 169th overall pick, and they scooped it up. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick189 Rnd6 Aamil Wagner
Aamil Wagner at Round 6, Pick 10 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick200 Rnd6 Daevin Hobbs
The board had cheaper options than Daevin Hobbs at No. 200, and it noticed. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick210 Rnd6 J. Michael Sturdivant
J. Michael Sturdivant in pick 210 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick247 Rnd7 Tony Grimes
Nice patience on Tony Grimes, who had no business lasting to the Round 7 slot. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
