Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A
ValueB NeedA- TradesA+ FutureA+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Gordon II: A.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Ollie Gordon II, the No. 175 name on the board, stolen at the Round 7 slot. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The Grant pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They punted on safety, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The kind of weekend a front office frames and hangs on the wall.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Mykel Williams
In the 12th overall pick they get a disruptor off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Luther Burden III
Taking Luther Burden III in Round 2, Pick 6 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick69 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
They let Alfred Collins come to them and pounced at slot 69. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick77 Rnd3 Charles Grant
They reached into another round for Charles Grant, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick105 Rnd4 Denzel Burke
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Denzel Burke in the Round 4 slot. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick145 Rnd5 Sai'vion Jones
Sai'vion Jones in pick No. 145 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick170 Rnd5 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. in pick 170 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick219 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
Ollie Gordon II in the 219th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick222 Rnd7 Jack Kiser
You do not let a linebacker like Jack Kiser reach pick 222 and blink. They did not. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick240 Rnd7 Jahvaree Ritzie
A wild overpay on Jahvaree Ritzie in No. 240, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
