Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Grand theft in Round 6, Pick 21: the Patriots steal Rodriguez and grade out a B.

Call it larceny. Nicholas Rodriguez sat on the board until the 200th overall pick, and the Patriots did not need to be asked twice. No fireworks, but a solid B.

They went 4 of 4 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Suntarine Perkins
In slot 30 they get a problem off the edge at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 A'Mauri Washington
They robbed the room for A'Mauri Washington here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick94 Rnd3 Nico Iamaleava
Nico Iamaleava at pick No. 94 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the quarterback. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick125 Rnd4 Jaylen McClain
Jaylen McClain at the 125th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick130 Rnd4 Cam Cook
Cam Cook in pick 130 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick168 Rnd5 Mateen Ibirogba
They read the board right and Mateen Ibirogba was the payoff at the 168th overall pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick189 Rnd6 Eric Singleton Jr.
No edge and no loss on Eric Singleton Jr. in the Round 6 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick200 Rnd6 Nicholas Rodriguez
They will replay Nicholas Rodriguez at Round 6, Pick 21 for years; that is how good the value is. A fine player at a spot low on the priority list.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jake Guarnera
Jake Guarnera at the 207th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jaden Platt
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jaden Platt. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick246 Rnd7 Sheridan Wilson
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Sheridan Wilson in slot 246, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
