Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesC- FutureB-
The Patriots won the night they stopped Laube from sliding. Grade: B-.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dylan Laube got past him. The Patriots do not have to explain a thing at slot 180.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The Spann-Ford reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 11th pick they get a go-to option on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick23 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu in pick No. 23 is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick50 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
A slide stopped in the Round 2 slot, with Keon Coleman worth more than the price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick53 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul in Round 2, Pick 21 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick103 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in the 103rd overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick137 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
They paid up for Kitan Oladapo at slot 137 when waiting would have done the job. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick180 Rnd6 Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube in No. 180 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick193 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
No drama and no debate, Joe Milton III went about where he belonged in pick 193. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick231 Rnd7 Brevyn Spann-Ford
Brevyn Spann-Ford at the 231st pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
