Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-.

The Patriots went off the board in a big way for Jalen Milroe, 35 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The McMillan pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. They will answer for taking defensive back early while edge rusher, safety and other spots went begging.

Bottom line, with Kool-Aid McKinstry leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
A want over a need in pick No. 28: Kool-Aid McKinstry adds a defensive back while edge rusher, safety and other spots keeps waiting.
Pick36 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
A tidy little value on T'Vondre Sweat in the 36th pick, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick60 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
This one needs a full-page explanation: Amarius Mims in No. 60, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick100 Rnd3 Graham Barton
No edge and no loss on Graham Barton in the 100th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick103 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at slot 103 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan at Round 5, Pick 4 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick181 Rnd6 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany in slot 181 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jalen Milroe
A real head-scratcher, Jalen Milroe in pick No. 224 is miles ahead of his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
