Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Patriots fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

The Patriots ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Reaching for Walker left real value on the table behind him.

The veteran additions, Jevon Holland chief among them, give the class a floor the rookies alone would not.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 JC Latham
In the 14th pick they get a building block for the line at fair value.
Pick34 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
J.J. McCarthy in the Round 2 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick66 Rnd3 Cooper DeJean
Cooper DeJean at slot 66 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick78 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Devontez Walker well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick223 Rnd7 Kamal Hadden
A reach on Kamal Hadden in Round 7, Pick 3; the board had better options right there. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
