Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Patriots, and a B- to prove it.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Patriots started one anyway for Sebastian Cheeks, 73 picks ahead of schedule.

That Wilson pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Cam Coleman
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Cam Coleman at slot 21. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick52 Rnd2 Anthony Smith
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Anthony Smith well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick85 Rnd3 Peyton Bowen
Peyton Bowen at the 85th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick121 Rnd4 Sebastian Cheeks
A wild overpay on Sebastian Cheeks in Round 4, Pick 20, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick166 Rnd5 Willie Rodriguez
Willie Rodriguez at pick 166 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick186 Rnd6 Antwan Raymond
This one needs a full-page explanation: Antwan Raymond in pick No. 186, miles early. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick187 Rnd6 Justin Evans
They will replay Justin Evans at Round 6, Pick 8 for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick199 Rnd6 Terry Moore
They robbed the room for Terry Moore here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick209 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
Steal is underselling it; Raylen Wilson at the 209th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick226 Rnd7 John Curry
John Curry is a better player than pick 226 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick257 Rnd7 Sheridan Wilson
The board had Sheridan Wilson higher than the Round 7 slot, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
