Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesC FutureB
The jury is out on the Patriots. For now, C+.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Patriots did exactly that with Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint in slot 193. It lands right in the middle: a C+, no more, no less.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Gray pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Tyler Guyton
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a blindside protector at fair value.
Pick34 Rnd2 Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall in slot 34 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick35 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
A big swing on Xavier Legette at pick 35, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick66 Rnd3 Blake Corum
They jumped the gun on Blake Corum, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick68 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
A premium they did not need to pay, Patrick Paul a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick71 Rnd3 Javon Baker
No drama and no debate, Javon Baker went about where he belonged in No. 71. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick103 Rnd4 Bucky Irving
Bucky Irving at slot 103 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick137 Rnd5 Cedric Gray
They barely believed it either: Cedric Gray still on the board at No. 137. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick180 Rnd6 Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III in the 180th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick193 Rnd6 Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint
They reached a country mile for Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint at pick 193, and the board is aghast. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick231 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
They reached into another round for Sam Hartman, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
