Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA FutureA
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Patriots: B+.

The Patriots put a flag in the ground for Jaydon Blue, 93 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit.

The Kiner pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Adonai Mitchell gives the group a proven body among the projects.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In No. 14 they get a security blanket over the middle. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III at the 38th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick45 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jihaad Campbell in slot 45. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick69 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at pick 69 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jayden Higgins
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jayden Higgins at Round 3, Pick 13 is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick105 Rnd4 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson at the 105th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick145 Rnd5 Darius Alexander
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Darius Alexander in the 145th pick, plain and simple. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick219 Rnd7 Howard Cross III
A tidy little value on Howard Cross III in the Round 7 slot, a step better than break-even. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick222 Rnd7 Jaydon Blue
They talked themselves into Jaydon Blue at Round 7, Pick 4, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick234 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
By-the-book stuff, Ty Hamilton at pick No. 234 squarely in line with his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick240 Rnd7 Corey Kiner
Corey Kiner in the 240th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
