Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB TradesF FutureA
The Patriots bled value on every deal, hence the D.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Patriots did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. The process wobbled, and the D is where it lands.

They are betting Jackson proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. Landing Mukuba that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, interior defensive lineman very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Tyler Warren
In pick 24 they get a red-zone target to build around, and a steal at that.
Pick38 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at Round 2, Pick 6 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick69 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at pick No. 69 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick77 Rnd3 Jack Sawyer
They will replay Jack Sawyer at the Round 3 slot for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick87 Rnd3 Anthony Belton
They left a pile of value on the table to take Anthony Belton this early at the 87th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick97 Rnd3 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo is a better player than No. 97 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick106 Rnd4 Andrew Mukuba
They barely believed it either: Andrew Mukuba still on the board at slot 106. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick144 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
Jacob Parrish in the 144th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick178 Rnd6 DJ Giddens
A tidy little value on DJ Giddens in the Round 6 slot, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
Pick236 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
Isaac TeSlaa in the 236th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick238 Rnd7 Fadil Diggs
No drama and no debate, Fadil Diggs went about where he belonged in pick No. 238. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
