Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueA NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Green: B.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Cayden Green, the No. 11 name on the board, stolen at pick 212. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Value over need was the throughline, for better and worse.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Jeremiah Smith
In slot 13 they get a matchup problem out wide, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 Dylan Stewart
You do not let an edge rusher like Dylan Stewart reach pick No. 44 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick75 Rnd3 Bray Hubbard
No drama and no debate, Bray Hubbard went about where he belonged in No. 75. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick112 Rnd4 Will Echoles
They will replay Will Echoles at the 112th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick154 Rnd5 Jadan Baugh
Jadan Baugh at the 154th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick183 Rnd6 Trey'Dez Green
Circle this one: Trey'Dez Green at Round 6, Pick 2 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick195 Rnd6 Will Heldt
Will Heldt in the Round 6 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick212 Rnd6 Cayden Green
Cayden Green at pick 212 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick251 Rnd7 Ahmad Moten Sr.
Taking Ahmad Moten Sr. in pick No. 251 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
