Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureA
The Patriots answered their biggest question with Daniels. Grade: B.

The Patriots spent the pick that matters most on Jayden Daniels, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

Smith falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The cost of the Coker reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

They punted on tight end, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the 5th pick they get a franchise quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick37 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
Troy Franklin at the 37th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick68 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
A straight-up fair deal on Patrick Paul at Round 3, Pick 4, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick86 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
A quiet steal in the Round 3 slot: Mike Sainristil for less than the market said. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick103 Rnd4 Maason Smith
Maason Smith at No. 103 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick111 Rnd4 Javon Foster
They paid a round early for Javon Foster in pick No. 111, more than the board wanted. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick137 Rnd5 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson slipping to pick 137 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180 Rnd6 Tykee Smith
Tykee Smith at slot 180 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick182 Rnd6 Grayson Murphy
Good price on Grayson Murphy in pick 182, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick193 Rnd6 Daijun Edwards
Fair-plus on Daijun Edwards, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jalen Coker
Jalen Coker at No. 231 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Edefuan Ulofoshio
Edefuan Ulofoshio at the 247th overall pick is money in the bank, a linebacker taken below his worth. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
