Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Patriots: B-.

The tape said wait; the Patriots did not. Warren Brinson went at No. 220, a good 74 picks before the board was ready. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

The Hill pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Princely Umanmielen
In pick 4 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick38 Rnd2 Derrick Harmon
Nice patience on Derrick Harmon, who had no business lasting to the 38th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick69 Rnd3 Elic Ayomanor
Elic Ayomanor at Round 3, Pick 5 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick77 Rnd3 Carson Schwesinger
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Carson Schwesinger at pick No. 77 is the proof. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick106 Rnd4 Quinshon Judkins
Taking Quinshon Judkins in No. 106 is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. The roster fit checks out.
Pick144 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce is a better player than the Round 5 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick217 Rnd7 Tommi Hill
They robbed the room for Tommi Hill here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick220 Rnd7 Warren Brinson
They reached a country mile for Warren Brinson at No. 220, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jordan Hancock
Jordan Hancock at the 238th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
