Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesD FutureA
Best value of the weekend goes to the Patriots for Mitchell: B-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Quinyon Mitchell tumbling to the Patriots in the 68th overall pick is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. The Mitchell pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 JC Latham
In pick No. 19 they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
They robbed the room for Kool-Aid McKinstry here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick51 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Good price on Xavier Worthy in pick 51, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick68 Rnd3 Quinyon Mitchell
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Quinyon Mitchell at cornerback with edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots open.
Pick83 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at slot 83 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The roster fit checks out.
Pick103 Rnd4 Malachi Corley
Malachi Corley slid further than he should have, and the 103rd overall pick is lovely value for the wide receiver. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick139 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
They paid sticker price for Jordan Travis in No. 139, and that is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick197 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Jase McClellan in the 197th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick224 Rnd7 Tatum Bethune
Value with a capital V on Tatum Bethune in No. 224, a genuine coup. A minor need, but a need all the same.
