Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-.

The Patriots went off the board in a big way for Jalen Milroe, 120 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

The Harris steal is the beam this whole class leans on. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain.

In the end it comes back to Brian Thomas Jr., and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick47 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
A wild overpay on Brian Thomas Jr. in the Round 2 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick103 Rnd4 Blake Corum
You do not let a running back like Blake Corum reach pick 103 and blink. They did not. The roster fit checks out.
Pick132 Rnd4 Tahj Brooks
They paid up for Tahj Brooks at Round 4, Pick 32 when waiting would have done the job. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jalen Milroe
Value said wait; Jalen Milroe in the 140th pick says they were not listening. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick181 Rnd6 Christian Mahogany
They jumped the gun on Christian Mahogany, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick247 Rnd7 Tre Harris
They will replay Tre Harris at No. 247 for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
