Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots cashed the board's mistake on Coleman: A.

Thirty-one other rooms let Keon Coleman slide, and the Patriots were the ones holding the card at pick 70. Highway robbery. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A to cap it.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

In the end it comes back to Bo Nix, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick34 Rnd2 Bo Nix
Bo Nix in the Round 2 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The roster fit checks out.
Pick47 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
They read the board right and Jordan Morgan was the payoff at slot 47. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick68 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
A quiet steal in Round 3, Pick 4: Kingsley Suamataia for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick70 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Keon Coleman in the 70th pick, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick104 Rnd4 DeWayne Carter
No drama and no debate, DeWayne Carter went about where he belonged in the 104th overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick106 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Zak Zinter. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick136 Rnd4 Josh Newton
Josh Newton slid further than he should have, and pick 136 is lovely value for the cornerback. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick182 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
They paid a round early for Steele Chambers in No. 182, more than the board wanted. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick229 Rnd7 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at pick 229 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
