Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall
A-
ValueA+
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureB-
The Patriots let Ward fall into their laps, and walked away with a A-. The board owed the Patriots one, and it paid up: Cam Ward, the No. 11 name on the board, sitting there at the 220th overall pick like a gift left on the doorstep. They executed a plan and it shows in the A-.
They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Travis Hunter
In pick No. 27 they get a lockdown presence outside at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick34
Rnd2
Malaki Starks
Somehow Malaki Starks was still sitting there in No. 34, and they pounced on premier safety value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick56
Rnd2
Ashton Jeanty
Ashton Jeanty at pick 56 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick59
Rnd2
Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at slot 59 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick66
Rnd3
Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland in the 66th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick91
Rnd3
Jahdae Barron
Steal is underselling it; Jahdae Barron at Round 3, Pick 27 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick92
Rnd3
Emery Jones Jr.
You do not let an offensive lineman like Emery Jones Jr. reach the 92nd pick and blink. They did not. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick98
Rnd4
Tre Harris
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Tre Harris in the Round 4 slot, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick109
Rnd4
Kenneth Grant
They will replay Kenneth Grant at the Round 4 slot for years; that is how good the value is. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick123
Rnd4
Aireontae Ersery
No drama and no debate, Aireontae Ersery went about where he belonged in the 123rd pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick124
Rnd4
Ashton Gillotte
Ashton Gillotte in pick 124 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick130
Rnd5
Sonny Styles
They robbed the room for Sonny Styles here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick220
Rnd7
Cam Ward
The board fumbled Cam Ward all the way to No. 220, and they scooped it up. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
