Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A
ValueA- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots cashed the board's mistake on Tampa: A.

You build a draft on nights like this. T.J. Tampa had no business being available in pick 91, and the Patriots did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

Mesidor has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The phones were where this weekend was really won. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

It is a haul that will look even better come September.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the 27th pick they get a cornerstone up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Brian Thomas Jr.
Nice patience on Brian Thomas Jr., who had no business lasting to pick No. 34. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick59 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in slot 59 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick60 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and J.J. McCarthy at Round 2, Pick 28 is the proof. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick91 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
T.J. Tampa at the Round 3 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick103 Rnd4 Brenden Rice
They robbed the room for Brenden Rice here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick137 Rnd5 Roman Wilson
You do not let a wide receiver like Roman Wilson reach No. 137 and blink. They did not. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick144 Rnd5 Kris Abrams-Draine
Steal is underselling it; Kris Abrams-Draine at pick 144 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick182 Rnd6 Akheem Mesidor
This one needs a full-page explanation: Akheem Mesidor in slot 182, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick224 Rnd7 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten at No. 224 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jake Briningstool well ahead of where he belonged. The roster fit checks out.
