Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A franchise passer in McCarthy headlines a B- weekend for the Patriots.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Patriots started one anyway for Carson Steele, 94 picks ahead of schedule.

J.J. McCarthy gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. The Liufau steal is the beam this whole class leans on. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 8 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Quantity was the play, for better or worse.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In No. 11 they get a franchise quarterback, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick25 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In slot 25 they get a long-term starter on the line. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Keon Coleman
By-the-book stuff, Keon Coleman at the 38th pick squarely in line with his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick73 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kingsley Suamataia in the Round 3 slot. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Theo Johnson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Theo Johnson well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick103 Rnd4 Maason Smith
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Maason Smith. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick106 Rnd4 Cam Hart
A clean, defensible pick in pick 106 with a little surplus value in Cam Hart. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick137 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
A reach for Justin Eboigbe in Round 5, Pick 1; a little patience would have been rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick138 Rnd5 Jacob Cowing
They paid a round early for Jacob Cowing in the 138th pick, more than the board wanted. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180 Rnd6 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at the 180th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick193 Rnd6 Marist Liufau
Marist Liufau in the Round 6 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick201 Rnd6 Andrew Raym
They reached into another round for Andrew Raym, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick231 Rnd7 Carson Steele
Carson Steele at slot 231 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The roster fit checks out.
