Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
The Patriots got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C+.

The Patriots treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending slot 190 on Haynes King a full 47 spots early. The final tally is a middling C+.

The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Aguero falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Hit on Keldric Faulk and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Keldric Faulk
In slot 12 they get a problem off the edge at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 Eric Rivers
Eric Rivers at the 44th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jalon Kilgore
Jalon Kilgore in pick No. 76 is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick90 Rnd3 Sonny Styles
A quiet steal in No. 90: Sonny Styles for less than the market said. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick112 Rnd4 Charles Jagusah
Charles Jagusah at the Round 4 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick151 Rnd5 Davison Igbinosun
A tidy bit of business in Round 5, Pick 13, where Davison Igbinosun graded well above the range. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick190 Rnd6 Haynes King
Haynes King at the 190th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick218 Rnd7 Joenel Aguero
They barely believed it either: Joenel Aguero still on the board at pick 218. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick225 Rnd7 Dante Dowdell
By-the-book stuff, Dante Dowdell at No. 225 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
