Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesC FutureA
A passer of the future in Maye, and a B, for the Patriots.

The search is over. The Patriots handed the keys to Drake Maye, and the whole operation now runs on his development. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Williams.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick6 Rnd1 Drake Maye
Drake Maye at pick 6 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick34 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tyler Guyton in pick No. 34. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick47 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
No drama and no debate, T'Vondre Sweat went about where he belonged in the 47th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick68 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at the Round 3 slot is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick103 Rnd4 Caelen Carson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Caelen Carson at slot 103 is the proof. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick137 Rnd5 Josh Newton
Josh Newton at the 137th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick180 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
No edge and no loss on Tanor Bortolini in No. 180; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick193 Rnd6 Erick All
A conviction pick on Erick All at Round 6, Pick 18 that the board grades a round light. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick231 Rnd7 Evan Williams
A tidy bit of business in No. 231, where Evan Williams graded well above the range. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
