Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA
Quarterback settled, Maye in the fold, and a A- for the Patriots.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Drake Maye is the Patriots' quarterback, full stop. Little to argue with here, and the A- says so.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The cost of the Van Pran reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In the 6th overall pick they get their quarterback of the future. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 JT Tuimoloau
A tidy little value on JT Tuimoloau in the Round 2 slot, a step better than break-even. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick47 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in No. 47 is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick68 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran at pick 68 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The roster fit checks out.
Pick103 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
By-the-book stuff, Dominick Puni at pick No. 103 squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick139 Rnd5 Malik Washington
A real head-scratcher, Malik Washington in slot 139 is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Jase McClellan at the 182nd pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick224 Rnd7 Xavier Restrepo
No edge and no loss on Xavier Restrepo in Round 7, Pick 4; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
