Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on De'Corian Clark; the Patriots did not wait, grabbing him 38 spots ahead at pick 182. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Few war rooms will sleep better than this one tonight.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In No. 17 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick48 Rnd2 Devontez Walker
No drama and no debate, Devontez Walker went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 16. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick68 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo at the 68th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick79 Rnd3 Christian Haynes
They took Christian Haynes at par in pick No. 79, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick103 Rnd4 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving in the Round 4 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jarrian Jones
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jarrian Jones at the 139th overall pick is the proof. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick182 Rnd6 De'Corian Clark
They talked themselves into De'Corian Clark at pick No. 182, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick224 Rnd7 Isaiah Williams
A tidy bit of business in slot 224, where Isaiah Williams graded well above the range. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
