Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC FutureB+
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Patriots.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but London Humphreys at pick 208 is 36 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.

They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it. On value alone, Johnson makes the weekend a net positive.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick52 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
They read the board right and Olaivavega Ioane was the payoff at slot 52. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick62 Rnd2 Chris Johnson
The board had Chris Johnson higher than the Round 2 slot, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick94 Rnd3 Caden Curry
They liked Caden Curry enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 3, Pick 30. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick120 Rnd4 Logan Jones
Logan Jones in pick No. 120 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
Jakobe Thomas at the 125th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick130 Rnd4 Charles Jagusah
They let Charles Jagusah come to them and pounced at No. 130. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick169 Rnd5 Eric McAlister
Eric McAlister at Round 5, Pick 30 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick190 Rnd6 Daevin Hobbs
Daevin Hobbs at pick 190 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick200 Rnd6 Princewill Umanmielen
They left a pile of value on the table to take Princewill Umanmielen this early at No. 200. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick201 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
No edge and no loss on Trey Zuhn III in the 201st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick208 Rnd6 London Humphreys
They reached into another round for London Humphreys, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick210 Rnd6 Brett Norfleet
Brett Norfleet at slot 210 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick246 Rnd7 Haynes King
Haynes King in the Round 7 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It fills a real need, too.
