Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureA+
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Cowing: B.

Somebody in Round 7, Pick 4 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Patriots sat still while Jacob Cowing, the No. 192 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. They will need Zinter to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick 14 they get a matchup problem out wide. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick46 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
No drama and no debate, Jordan Morgan went about where he belonged in pick No. 46. The roster fit checks out.
Pick67 Rnd3 Sedrick Van Pran
Sedrick Van Pran at Round 3, Pick 3 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick78 Rnd3 Zak Zinter
They went early on Zak Zinter in No. 78, and the value did not follow. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick103 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
By-the-book stuff, Blake Fisher at the 103rd overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick132 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Tommy Eichenberg in the Round 4 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick147 Rnd5 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey in slot 147 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick181 Rnd6 Will Shipley
A slide stopped in the 181st pick, with Will Shipley worth more than the price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jacob Cowing
They robbed the room for Jacob Cowing here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
