Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall D+
ValueF NeedB TradesD FutureD
A weekend the Patriots will want back. Grade: D+.

The Patriots spent real capital to be 286 picks early on Donald Chaney, and the board is going to hold them to it. A D+ that will need time and luck to look better.

The Harmon pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

It is a win-now wager, and the future is the stake.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and edge rusher is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Emeka Egbuka
In No. 4 they get a weapon on the perimeter, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick7 Rnd1 Benjamin Morrison
In the 7th overall pick they get a potential shutdown corner, a steep price for the projection.
Pick70 Rnd3 Jalen Travis
They reached into another round for Jalen Travis, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick106 Rnd4 Donald Chaney
This one needs a full-page explanation: Donald Chaney in pick 106, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick144 Rnd5 Makari Paige
Makari Paige at the Round 5 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick171 Rnd5 Derrick Harmon
The board fumbled Derrick Harmon all the way to slot 171, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick220 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
Phil Mafah in the Round 7 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jimmy Horn Jr.
Jimmy Horn Jr. in pick No. 238 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
