Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Patriots drew a line under the quarterback search with Maye: B+.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Drake Maye is the Patriots' quarterback, full stop. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They banked enough surplus on Ford to cover a lot of smaller sins.

Kamara has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. For all the activity, safety went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Good work on the whole, with safety the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In the 6th overall pick they get their guy under center for the next decade. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick27 Rnd1 JC Latham
In pick 27 they get a blindside protector, outstanding value to boot. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
Good price on Brian Thomas Jr. in No. 34, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick47 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in pick No. 47 is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick71 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at slot 71 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick103 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
By-the-book stuff, Mekhi Wingo at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick107 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
They reached into another round for Mohamed Kamara, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick137 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan at Round 5, Pick 1 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick180 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden slipping to No. 180 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick193 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
They took Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at par in pick 193, which is nothing to complain about. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jaylan Ford
Circle this one: Jaylan Ford at slot 231 is a fall that decides a draft. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
