Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB-
The Patriots let Winston Jr. fall into their laps, and walked away with a B+.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Kevin Winston Jr., the No. 94 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 221.

If Dellinger pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Tetairoa McMillan
In the 3rd overall pick they get a weapon on the perimeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick70 Rnd3 Tyleik Williams
Value with a capital V on Tyleik Williams in pick 70, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick80 Rnd3 Ajani Cornelius
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Ajani Cornelius. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick106 Rnd4 Evan Stewart
Evan Stewart at pick No. 106 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick141 Rnd5 Deontae Lawson
They barely believed it either: Deontae Lawson still on the board at Round 5, Pick 3. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick221 Rnd7 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in No. 221 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick223 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
They left a pile of value on the table to take Garrett Dellinger this early at slot 223. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick235 Rnd7 Brant Kuithe
Brant Kuithe at the 235th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
