Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Patriots checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

The Patriots put a flag in the ground for Adam Randall, 31 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered. Nothing gained and nothing lost at the table.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Joshua Josephs
In the Round 1 slot they get a bendy edge with upside, reach and all. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 Omar Cooper Jr.
Omar Cooper Jr. in the 63rd overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick95 Rnd3 Michael Trigg
They took Michael Trigg at par in No. 95, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick125 Rnd4 Beau Stephens
Value said wait; Beau Stephens in pick 125 says they were not listening. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick131 Rnd4 Davison Igbinosun
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Davison Igbinosun at the 131st pick. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick169 Rnd5 Aamil Wagner
Aamil Wagner at slot 169 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick189 Rnd6 David Gusta
A premium they did not need to pay, David Gusta a notch or two before his time. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick207 Rnd6 Aiden Fisher
They left a pile of value on the table to take Aiden Fisher this early at pick 207. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick210 Rnd6 Sam Roush
Sam Roush at the 210th overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick247 Rnd7 Adam Randall
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Adam Randall well ahead of where he belonged. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
