Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
The phones sank the Patriots this weekend: D+.

The Patriots bet big and early on Bryce Foster, 81 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Spending an early pick on cornerback with edge rusher and running back open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

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

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and edge rusher is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Spencer Fano
In slot 12 they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
Pick57 Rnd2 Max Klare
Max Klare in Round 2, Pick 25 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick76 Rnd3 Elijah Sarratt
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Elijah Sarratt at No. 76 is the proof. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick89 Rnd3 D'Angelo Ponds
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on D'Angelo Ponds. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick90 Rnd3 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles at the 90th overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick100 Rnd3 Bryce Foster
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Bryce Foster. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick112 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
A want over a need in Round 4, Pick 10: Domani Jackson adds a cornerback while edge rusher and running back keeps waiting.
Pick125 Rnd4 Chase Roberts
No drama and no debate, Chase Roberts went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick129 Rnd4 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp is a better player than No. 129 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
Pick151 Rnd5 Isaac Smith
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Isaac Smith in pick No. 151. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick164 Rnd5 Taylen Green
Taylen Green slipping to the 164th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick190 Rnd6 Daevin Hobbs
No edge and no loss on Daevin Hobbs in slot 190; it is a wash and a sensible one. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick218 Rnd7 Dominic Zvada
They liked Dominic Zvada enough to skip the value, taking him in the 218th pick. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick225 Rnd7 J.C. Davis
J.C. Davis in pick 225 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
