For all the boxes ticked, the Patriots skipped the loudest one: interior defensive lineman is exactly as bare as it was. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The Pearsall value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The Tagovailoa pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The skill positions did well by the weekend.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
