Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall

FutureC+
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Patriots to a D-. The Patriots looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Richard Jibunor at the 226th overall pick regardless, 84 picks early. It grades a D-, and the process earned it.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.
The Milton III steal is the beam this whole class leans on.
A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Joe Alt
In No. 3 they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
Pick34
Rnd2
Bo Nix
Bo Nix slipping to pick 34 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick35
Rnd2
Troy Franklin
Troy Franklin at pick No. 35 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick68
Rnd3
Calen Bullock
A tidy bit of business in the Round 3 slot, where Calen Bullock graded well above the range. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick71
Rnd3
Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in Round 3, Pick 7 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick103
Rnd4
Audric Estime
They paid sticker price for Audric Estime in slot 103, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick105
Rnd4
Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in the 105th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick142
Rnd5
Javon Foster
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Javon Foster in the 142nd pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick158
Rnd5
Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe in slot 158 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick182
Rnd6
Joe Milton III
Steal is underselling it; Joe Milton III at the Round 6 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick183
Rnd6
Jase McClellan
They went early on Jase McClellan in Round 6, Pick 8, and the value did not follow. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick188
Rnd6
Dwight McGlothern
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dwight McGlothern this early at pick 188. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick224
Rnd7
Erick All
They reached a country mile for Erick All at No. 224, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
Pick225
Rnd7
Nathaniel Watson
A straight-up fair deal on Nathaniel Watson at pick No. 225, value and slot in agreement. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick226
Rnd7
Richard Jibunor
Richard Jibunor at No. 226 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
