Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB FutureB
The Patriots did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The Patriots clearly saw something nobody else did in Phillip Webb, taking him 100 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Etienne. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. They went 7 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In slot 12 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
They will replay Luther Burden III at the 38th pick for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick44 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Good price on Jihaad Campbell in the Round 2 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick69 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and TreVeyon Henderson at pick 69 is the proof. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick76 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Value with a capital V on Donovan Jackson in pick No. 76, a genuine coup. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick77 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo in Round 3, Pick 13 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jaylin Noel
Jaylin Noel in pick No. 106 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jordan Phillips
You do not let an interior defensive lineman like Jordan Phillips reach the 144th overall pick and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish at Round 5, Pick 36 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick217 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at No. 217 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick220 Rnd7 Trevor Etienne
Steal is underselling it; Trevor Etienne at the Round 7 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick238 Rnd7 Phillip Webb
Phillip Webb at pick 238 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
