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

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Jayden Daniels is the Patriots' quarterback, full stop. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They are betting Frazier proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the 3rd overall pick they get their guy under center for the next decade. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman at the Round 2 slot is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick68 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kingsley Suamataia at No. 68 is the proof. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick103 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
Braelon Allen at slot 103 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick139 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
By-the-book stuff, Theo Johnson at pick No. 139 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick182 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
A reach on De'Corian Clark in Round 6, Pick 7; the board had better options right there. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick224 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
Miles Frazier in the 224th pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
