Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall D+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Patriots found their guy under center in Nix: D+.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Patriots shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill.

Everything downstream of Bo Nix depends on Bo Nix, and the building knows it. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They are betting Nix proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

The Hadden value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Bo Nix
In pick No. 12 they get their quarterback of the future, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick25 Rnd1 Brian Thomas Jr.
In the 25th pick they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at No. 34 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick54 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in pick 54 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick68 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Javon Bullard at slot 68 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick104 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
They paid sticker price for Braelon Allen in Round 4, Pick 4, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick136 Rnd4 Ainias Smith
Nothing to complain about; Ainias Smith went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick182 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Kamal Hadden at the Round 6 slot is the proof. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick196 Rnd6 Erick All
They jumped the gun on Erick All, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
