Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall

FutureB-
The Patriots fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B. The Thor Griffith pick is the one that will follow the Patriots into the fall. They took him 156 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.
Getting Allar where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.
For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Patriots clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick33
Rnd2
Abdul Carter
They went early on Abdul Carter in pick 33, and the value did not follow. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick59
Rnd2
Colston Loveland
They took Colston Loveland at par in pick No. 59, which is nothing to complain about. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick64
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
They talked themselves into Tyler Warren at the Round 2 slot, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick67
Rnd3
Donovan Ezeiruaku
A premium they did not need to pay, Donovan Ezeiruaku a notch or two before his time. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick68
Rnd3
Aireontae Ersery
A clean, defensible pick in No. 68 with a little surplus value in Aireontae Ersery. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick86
Rnd3
Harold Fannin Jr.
They liked Harold Fannin Jr. enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 3, Pick 22. It fills a real need, too.
Pick93
Rnd3
DeMonte Capehart
A real head-scratcher, DeMonte Capehart in Round 3, Pick 29 is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick103
Rnd4
LT Overton
A big swing on LT Overton at the 103rd pick, well ahead of any board in the building. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick125
Rnd4
Benjamin Morrison
A reach for Benjamin Morrison in the Round 4 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick128
Rnd4
Jihaad Campbell
Fair-plus on Jihaad Campbell, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick139
Rnd5
Anthony Belton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Anthony Belton this early at pick 139. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick140
Rnd5
Dont'e Thornton Jr.
They reached a country mile for Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick No. 140, and the board is aghast. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick141
Rnd5
Jonah Coleman
Jonah Coleman at slot 141 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick168
Rnd5
Drew Allar
You do not let a quarterback like Drew Allar reach the 168th overall pick and blink. They did not. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick177
Rnd6
Alfred Collins
They reached into another round for Alfred Collins, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick217
Rnd7
Ar'maj Reed-Adams
Ar'maj Reed-Adams in Round 7, Pick 3 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick220
Rnd7
Thor Griffith
Value said wait; Thor Griffith in the 220th pick says they were not listening. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick235
Rnd7
Jaylin Noel
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jaylin Noel well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
