Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Patriots: B-.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Patriots started one anyway for Kalil Alexander, 43 picks ahead of schedule. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Branch. The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 KC Concepcion
In the 30th overall pick they get a difference-maker at receiver, even if it was a touch early. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick62 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at slot 62 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick94 Rnd3 Austin Siereveld
A straight-up fair deal on Austin Siereveld at pick No. 94, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick118 Rnd4 Chris Johnson
Good price on Chris Johnson in pick 118, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick130 Rnd4 Zachariah Branch
Nice patience on Zachariah Branch, who had no business lasting to the Round 4 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick170 Rnd5 Monroe Mills
By-the-book stuff, Monroe Mills at No. 170 squarely in line with his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick195 Rnd6 Adepoju Adebawore
They reached into another round for Adepoju Adebawore, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick209 Rnd6 Jahiem White
Jahiem White at slot 209 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick215 Rnd7 Kalil Alexander
Kalil Alexander in the 215th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick244 Rnd7 Brett Norfleet
They took Brett Norfleet at par in pick No. 244, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
