Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Patriots cashed the board's mistake on Fitzgerald: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Ryan Fitzgerald got past him. The Patriots do not have to explain a thing at the 238th overall pick.

Every board in the league had Walley lower, and that gap is the story. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
In the 4th pick they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Jalon Walker
Somehow Jalon Walker was still sitting there in slot 38, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jalen Royals
Fair-plus on Jalen Royals, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick81 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba is a better player than the 81st overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick104 Rnd4 Quinshon Judkins
Circle this one: Quinshon Judkins at No. 104 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick117 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer in the Round 4 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick143 Rnd5 Kyle Williams
Value said wait; Kyle Williams in Round 5, Pick 6 says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick217 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
A wild overpay on Garrett Dellinger in pick 217, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick220 Rnd7 Justin Walley
Justin Walley in pick No. 220 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick238 Rnd7 Ryan Fitzgerald
Ryan Fitzgerald at the 238th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
