Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Patriots a B.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Patriots, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Burke pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots.

The Burke pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In No. 7 they get a building block for the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Nate Wiggins
Nate Wiggins at pick No. 35 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick36 Rnd2 Quinn Ewers
They paid sticker price for Quinn Ewers in Round 2, Pick 4, and that is fine. It fills a real need, too.
Pick39 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
A straight-up fair deal on Keon Coleman at slot 39, value and slot in agreement. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick67 Rnd3 Denzel Burke
Of all the spots to shop, they chose cornerback. Denzel Burke in the 67th overall pick leaves edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots for later.
Pick103 Rnd4 Graham Barton
Graham Barton in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick107 Rnd4 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at pick 107 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick140 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
A reasonable price with a little left over, Ben Sinnott in the 140th pick. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
