BBB DRAFTING FOR THEPatriots

Draft Grade — Patriots

FutureA-
Daniels is the Patriots' new face under center. Grade: B. Start where it matters. The Patriots took Jayden Daniels to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.
The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Liufau pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. However the rest shakes out, McGlothern at that price is a win they earned.
They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick7
Rnd1
Jayden Daniels
No edge and no loss on Jayden Daniels in slot 7; it is a wash and a sensible one. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick34
Rnd2
Ja'Tavion Sanders
No drama and no debate, Ja'Tavion Sanders went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick38
Rnd2
Chris Braswell
Chris Braswell at the 38th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick68
Rnd3
Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at Round 3, Pick 4 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick104
Rnd4
Zak Zinter
A straight-up fair deal on Zak Zinter at No. 104, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick106
Rnd4
Braelon Allen
They paid sticker price for Braelon Allen in pick No. 106, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick136
Rnd4
Marist Liufau
The board had cheaper options than Marist Liufau at the 136th overall pick, and it noticed. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick182
Rnd6
Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson at pick 182 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick184
Rnd6
Dwight McGlothern
Nice patience on Dwight McGlothern, who had no business lasting to the Round 6 slot. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick229
Rnd7
Trey Knox
Trey Knox in pick No. 229 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
