Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall C
ValueF NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The jury is out on the Patriots. For now, C.

The Patriots treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick 31 on Roderick Kearney a full 272 spots early. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C.

They banked enough surplus on Jacas to cover a lot of smaller sins. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

On the needs board they went 7 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

In the end, one you will need a couple of seasons to truly judge.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Roderick Kearney
In slot 31 they get a long-term starter on the line, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Eric Rivers
They reached into another round for Eric Rivers, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick95 Rnd3 Markel Bell
Markel Bell at No. 95 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick125 Rnd4 Trey Moore
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Trey Moore. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick131 Rnd4 Dillon Thieneman
Taking Dillon Thieneman in pick No. 131 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick171 Rnd5 Albert Regis
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Albert Regis. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick191 Rnd6 Jared Brown
They reached a country mile for Jared Brown at slot 191, and the board is aghast. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick198 Rnd6 Gabe Jacas
Steal is underselling it; Gabe Jacas at Round 6, Pick 17 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick202 Rnd6 Marlin Klein
They robbed the room for Marlin Klein here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick212 Rnd6 Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson at pick 212 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick247 Rnd7 Branson Robinson
Branson Robinson at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
