Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall

FutureA
The Patriots fleeced the room on the phones and earned a A. Give the war room a raise for the dealing alone. The Patriots came out ahead on every exchange that mattered, and it was not close.
The Perkins Jr. pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. That is a running back worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.
The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
Trust the process, because this time the process plainly worked.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
Abdul Carter
In Round 1, Pick 15 they get juice off the edge. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick36
Rnd2
Xavier Restrepo
Circle this one: Xavier Restrepo at slot 36 is a fall that decides a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick44
Rnd2
Harold Fannin Jr.
A slide stopped in pick No. 44, with Harold Fannin Jr. worth more than the price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick105
Rnd4
Harold Perkins Jr.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Harold Perkins Jr. well ahead of where he belonged. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick142
Rnd5
Tahj Brooks
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Tahj Brooks in the 142nd pick, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
