Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureD-
The Patriots bet the future on Travis. The board says B-.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Patriots shredded theirs for Jordan Travis. He came off 61 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

The whole projection now runs through Jordan Travis; hit there and everything else looks smarter. They banked enough surplus on Smith to cover a lot of smaller sins. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through safety.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Jordan Travis
In the 31st overall pick they get their guy under center for the next decade, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick35 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Fair-plus on Xavier Worthy, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick63 Rnd2 Jonah Elliss
The board had Jonah Elliss higher than pick No. 63, and the edge rusher fell to them anyway. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick67 Rnd3 Byron Murphy II
Byron Murphy II at No. 67 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick94 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
They paid sticker price for Payton Wilson in pick 94, and that is fine. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jason Marshall Jr.
A premium they did not need to pay, Jason Marshall Jr. a notch or two before his time. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick140 Rnd5 Darius Robinson
Darius Robinson in No. 140 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick181 Rnd6 Devontez Walker
A wide receiver of that caliber at Round 6, Pick 6 is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick224 Rnd7 Ainias Smith
The board fumbled Ainias Smith all the way to slot 224, and they scooped it up. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
