Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Williams is the Patriots' new face under center. Grade: B.

The Patriots spent the pick that matters most on Caleb Williams, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

The Coleman steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In Round 1, Pick 3 they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
They read the board right and Jordan Morgan was the payoff at the 34th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman in the 68th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick103 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
No edge and no loss on Dominick Puni in the Round 4 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick139 Rnd5 Dylan Laube
They took Dylan Laube at par in pick 139, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick182 Rnd6 Chau Smith-Wade
You do not let a cornerback like Chau Smith-Wade reach No. 182 and blink. They did not. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick224 Rnd7 Austin Stogner
The board fumbled Austin Stogner all the way to slot 224, and they scooped it up. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick232 Rnd7 Jha'Quan Jackson
They barely believed it either: Jha'Quan Jackson still on the board at pick No. 232. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
