Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA-
Maye is the plan now, and the Patriots grade out a A-.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Drake Maye is the Patriots' quarterback, full stop.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. It is not that Jackson is a bad player; it is that the Patriots had louder needs to answer first.

Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Drake Maye
A straight-up fair deal on Drake Maye at pick 4, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick35 Rnd2 Troy Franklin
Troy Franklin in pick No. 35 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
No drama and no debate, Jordan Morgan went about where he belonged in slot 39. It fills a real need, too.
Pick76 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
Mike Sainristil at the 76th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick101 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A surprising call. With edge rusher, safety and other spots still to address, they spent Round 4, Pick 1 on Khyree Jackson, a cornerback they were not short of.
Pick103 Rnd4 DeWayne Carter
By-the-book stuff, DeWayne Carter at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick121 Rnd4 Javon Foster
No edge and no loss on Javon Foster in the 121st pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick137 Rnd5 Johnny Wilson
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Johnny Wilson in No. 137. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
