Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB TradesD FutureB-
Williams is the Patriots' new face under center. Grade: C+.

The search is over. The Patriots handed the keys to Caleb Williams, and the whole operation now runs on his development. The final tally is a middling C+.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. The Smith pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots.

They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the 3rd pick they get their quarterback of the future at fair value.
Pick43 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jordan Morgan in the 43rd overall pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in slot 68 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick102 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
By-the-book stuff, Braelon Allen at pick 102 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick108 Rnd4 Maason Smith
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Maason Smith adds a DT-EDGE and leaves edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots untouched.
Pick136 Rnd4 Jaylin Simpson
A straight-up fair deal on Jaylin Simpson at Round 4, Pick 36, value and slot in agreement. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick179 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Good price on Dwight McGlothern in No. 179, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick192 Rnd6 Delmar Glaze
The board had Delmar Glaze higher than pick No. 192, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick231 Rnd7 Frank Gore Jr.
They did well to land Frank Gore Jr. in pick 231, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
