Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots robbed the room for Gordon II. Final grade: A-.

Call it larceny. Ollie Gordon II sat on the board until pick No. 220, and the Patriots did not need to be asked twice. Little to argue with here, and the A- says so.

The Henderson reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Luther Burden III and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
The board fumbled Luther Burden III all the way to pick 33, and they scooped it up. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick38 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
A premium they did not need to pay, Aireontae Ersery a notch or two before his time. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick67 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Maxwell Hairston. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick69 Rnd3 Ashton Gillotte
A real head-scratcher, Ashton Gillotte in the Round 3 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jack Bech
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Jack Bech at the 77th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick104 Rnd4 Gunnar Helm
A quiet steal in pick No. 104: Gunnar Helm for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick106 Rnd4 Charles Grant
They let Charles Grant come to them and pounced at No. 106. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick144 Rnd5 Kobe King
Kobe King in Round 5, Pick 6 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick217 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
Ty Hamilton at No. 217 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick220 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Ollie Gordon II in the 220th overall pick, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick238 Rnd7 Xzavier Henderson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Xzavier Henderson in the Round 7 slot, miles early. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
