Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueC NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
The Patriots let Hampton fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

The Patriots did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Omarion Hampton fell into pick 105.

They will need Jones Jr. to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Will Campbell
Will Campbell at slot 8 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick36 Rnd2 Nic Scourton
They talked themselves into Nic Scourton at pick No. 36, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jahdae Barron
They robbed the room for Jahdae Barron here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick87 Rnd3 Tyler Warren
Tyler Warren at No. 87 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick94 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at the Round 3 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick105 Rnd4 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton in pick 105 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick123 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Emery Jones Jr. in the 123rd overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick142 Rnd5 Jared Wilson
Jared Wilson in Round 5, Pick 4 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick168 Rnd5 Tory Horton
Value said wait; Tory Horton in Round 5, Pick 30 says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick213 Rnd6 Bryson Nesbit
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Bryson Nesbit well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick220 Rnd7 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell at pick 220 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick224 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
They read the board right and Tonka Hemingway was the payoff at the 224th overall pick. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick241 Rnd7 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter in pick No. 241 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
