Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureA+
The Patriots answered their biggest question with Daniels. Grade: B-.

After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Patriots committed. Jayden Daniels is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline.

The Simpson pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In pick No. 9 they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
Good price on Brian Thomas Jr. in the 34th overall pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick68 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Circle this one: Patrick Paul at Round 3, Pick 4 is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Taking Kingsley Suamataia in pick 75 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick103 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
They barely believed it either: Roman Wilson still on the board at No. 103. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick139 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube at the 139th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jaylin Simpson
Jaylin Simpson at the Round 6 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick224 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
Brevyn Spann-Ford at slot 224 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick232 Rnd7 Myles Jones
A cornerback of that caliber at No. 232 is the definition of value, full stop. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
