Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Patriots for Beebe: B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Cooper Beebe got past him. The Patriots do not have to explain a thing at the Round 4 slot. Good, not great, and the B says as much.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In the 3rd overall pick they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Bo Nix
Bo Nix in No. 34 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick68 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
You do not let a wide receiver like Devontez Walker reach slot 68 and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick103 Rnd4 Cooper Beebe
Cooper Beebe in pick 103 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick139 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe slipping to the Round 5 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick182 Rnd6 Kitan Oladapo
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kitan Oladapo in the 182nd pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick224 Rnd7 Austin Stogner
Austin Stogner in pick No. 224 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick232 Rnd7 Omar Speights
Omar Speights at Round 7, Pick 12 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
