Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Patriots kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Boards are made to be trusted, and the Patriots shredded theirs for CJ Donaldson. He came off 60 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. However the rest shakes out, Wallace III at that price is a win they earned.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick48 Rnd2 Blake Miller
They paid up for Blake Miller at the 48th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick63 Rnd2 Keith Abney II
Somehow Keith Abney II was still sitting there in the Round 2 slot, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jacob Rodriguez
They liked Jacob Rodriguez enough to skip the value, taking him in Round 3, Pick 5. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick106 Rnd4 Jack Endries
Jack Endries at pick 106 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick125 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance in No. 125 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick131 Rnd4 Jakobe Thomas
By-the-book stuff, Jakobe Thomas at the 131st pick squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick171 Rnd5 Ephesians Prysock
They jumped the gun on Ephesians Prysock, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick191 Rnd6 Bobby Jamison-Travis
Bobby Jamison-Travis at the Round 6 slot is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick202 Rnd6 Dallen Bentley
They read the board right and Dallen Bentley was the payoff at the 202nd overall pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick209 Rnd6 Charles Demmings
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Charles Demmings. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick212 Rnd6 Harrison Wallace III
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Harrison Wallace III in No. 212, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick243 Rnd7 CJ Donaldson
They left a pile of value on the table to take CJ Donaldson this early at the 243rd pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick244 Rnd7 Jack Kelly
A big swing on Jack Kelly at pick 244, well ahead of any board in the building. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Cole Payton
Nice patience on Cole Payton, who had no business lasting to pick No. 247. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
