Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall

FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B for the Patriots. For all the names on the card, the loudest question went unanswered. The Patriots walked out of the weekend still thin at wide receiver, a hole that has a way of deciding seasons. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.
The Haulcy pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The Young pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick31
Rnd1
Zion Young
In No. 31 they get a disruptor off the edge, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63
Rnd2
A.J. Haulcy
They let A.J. Haulcy come to them and pounced at the 63rd pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
