Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Ethan Downs in No. 220, a good 70 spots before the room expected him. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A-.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The Henderson value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

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

Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In the Round 1 slot they get a building block for the line at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
The board fumbled Nick Emmanwori all the way to the 38th overall pick, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jaylin Noel
They paid sticker price for Jaylin Noel in slot 58, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick69 Rnd3 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at pick 69 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick77 Rnd3 TreVeyon Henderson
They will replay TreVeyon Henderson at pick No. 77 for years; that is how good the value is. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick90 Rnd3 Charles Grant
They took Charles Grant at par in the 90th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick106 Rnd4 Tory Horton
Tory Horton in Round 4, Pick 4 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick144 Rnd5 Cobee Bryant
Taking Cobee Bryant in the 144th pick is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick171 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in the Round 5 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick201 Rnd6 Connor Colby
A tidy bit of business in No. 201, where Connor Colby graded well above the range. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick220 Rnd7 Ethan Downs
Ethan Downs at slot 220 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick238 Rnd7 Gino Garcia
Gino Garcia in pick 238 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
