Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Maye in the fold, and a B- for the Patriots.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Patriots spent their marquee pick on Drake Maye, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback.

Every board in the league had Vidal lower, and that gap is the story. Landing Jacobs that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Drake Maye
A straight-up fair deal on Drake Maye at the 3rd pick, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick34 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell in slot 34 is fair value, right on his grade. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick68 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
No drama and no debate, Kiran Amegadjie went about where he belonged in pick No. 68. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick103 Rnd4 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany at Round 4, Pick 3 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The roster fit checks out.
Pick137 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Christian Jones at No. 137 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick180 Rnd6 Tip Reiman
They took Tip Reiman at par in the Round 6 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick193 Rnd6 Kimani Vidal
A big swing on Kimani Vidal at pick 193, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick231 Rnd7 Curtis Jacobs
They barely believed it either: Curtis Jacobs still on the board at the 231st overall pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
