Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Riley: B+.

Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Patriots came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Riley. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. The veteran additions, Joe Alt chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with safety chief among the fixes.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick34 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at slot 34 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick92 Rnd3 Quincy Riley
The board fumbled Quincy Riley all the way to No. 92, and they scooped it up. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick98 Rnd4 Sonny Styles
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Sonny Styles at pick 98. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick125 Rnd4 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at the 125th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
