Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Patriots turned the phones into found money: B+.

The Patriots did not so much draft Jaheim Oatis as overpay for him, 35 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Will Campbell
Will Campbell slipping to the 14th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It fills a real need, too.
Pick27 Rnd1 Emery Jones
By-the-book stuff, Emery Jones at pick 27 squarely in line with his ranking. The roster fit checks out.
Pick28 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In No. 28 they get a ballhawk on the back end at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
A straight-up fair deal on Jonah Savaiinaea at the 34th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick45 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Nice patience on Omarion Hampton, who had no business lasting to Round 2, Pick 13. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick58 Rnd2 Ashton Jeanty
Ashton Jeanty in pick No. 58 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick59 Rnd2 Xavier Nwankpa
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Xavier Nwankpa in slot 59. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick66 Rnd3 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp at Round 3, Pick 2 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick82 Rnd3 Earnest Greene III
Earnest Greene III at the 82nd pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick98 Rnd4 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery at pick 98 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick130 Rnd5 Alfred Collins
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Alfred Collins. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick194 Rnd7 Jaheim Oatis
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jaheim Oatis well ahead of where he belonged. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
