Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB+
The Patriots drew a line under the quarterback search with Daniels: B+.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Patriots did exactly that with Bryson Nesbit in the 246th pick. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

Jayden Daniels is the bet, and the class will be judged on how it pays off. Wiggins falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In the 4th pick they get the face of the franchise. A real need, handled.
Pick67 Rnd3 Nate Wiggins
Nate Wiggins at the 67th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick68 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
No drama and no debate, Malachi Corley went about where he belonged in the Round 3 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick103 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
A reach on Blake Fisher in pick 103; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick107 Rnd4 Audric Estime
They paid sticker price for Audric Estime in pick No. 107, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick140 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
A real head-scratcher, Ben Sinnott in Round 5, Pick 4 is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick181 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in slot 181 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick246 Rnd7 Bryson Nesbit
This one needs a full-page explanation: Bryson Nesbit in the Round 7 slot, miles early. The roster fit checks out.
