Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Patriots won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B+.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Patriots reached some 151 spots for Cornelius Johnson, and value like that does not grow back.

Getting Fuaga where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 12th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 JC Latham
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing JC Latham in pick No. 34. The roster fit checks out.
Pick36 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
A straight-up fair deal on J.J. McCarthy at Round 2, Pick 4, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
Pick68 Rnd3 Taliese Fuaga
Taliese Fuaga in pick 68 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Christian Mahogany
They barely believed it either: Christian Mahogany still on the board at the Round 4 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick136 Rnd4 Luke McCaffrey
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Luke McCaffrey. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick182 Rnd6 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyrone Tracy Jr. in pick No. 182, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick229 Rnd7 Cornelius Johnson
A big swing on Cornelius Johnson at slot 229, well ahead of any board in the building. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
