Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA- FutureA
The Patriots answered their biggest question with Daniels. Grade: B+.

The search is over. The Patriots handed the keys to Jayden Daniels, and the whole operation now runs on his development. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B+.

The Bullard pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The cost of the Corley reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The dealing nudged the ledger their way without much fuss.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In Round 1, Pick 8 they get their quarterback of the future. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
They paid sticker price for Tyler Guyton in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick66 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
They jumped the gun on Malachi Corley, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick68 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in slot 68 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick90 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
Somehow Javon Bullard was still sitting there in No. 90, and they pounced on premier safety value. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick103 Rnd4 Marshawn Kneeland
They took Marshawn Kneeland at par in pick No. 103, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick144 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at the 144th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick182 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. slipping to pick 182 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick224 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
Daequan Hardy at pick No. 224 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick232 Rnd7 Zion Logue
Zion Logue at pick 232 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
