Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Patriots found their guy under center in Williams: B.

The search is over. The Patriots handed the keys to Caleb Williams, and the whole operation now runs on his development. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Suamataia at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 2nd pick they get a long-term answer under center. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman in the 34th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick66 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Value with a capital V on Kingsley Suamataia in slot 66, a genuine coup. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
