Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall C
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureC+
The Patriots cashed the board's mistake on McGlothern: C.

The trade table was where it all came apart. The Patriots shipped out far more than they hauled back, and no amount of spin dresses up the bill. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is McGlothern. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped safety, which is a strange place to end up.

They will need Fisher to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it.

So much rides on Marvin Harrison Jr. that the real verdict is a season or two away.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Marvin Harrison Jr. at Round 1, Pick 3 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kool-Aid McKinstry in pick No. 34. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick68 Rnd3 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske is a better player than the Round 3 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick100 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Christian Mahogany. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick103 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in slot 103 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick104 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
No edge and no loss on Braelon Allen in No. 104; it is a wash and a sensible one. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick105 Rnd4 Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher at the 105th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick137 Rnd5 Christian Jones
A tidy little value on Christian Jones in Round 5, Pick 1, a step better than break-even. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick180 Rnd6 Braiden McGregor
Braiden McGregor at slot 180 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick182 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
You do not let a cornerback like Dwight McGlothern reach the 182nd pick and blink. They did not. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick221 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
They took JD Bertrand at par in No. 221, which is nothing to complain about. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick222 Rnd7 Eric Watts
A conviction pick on Eric Watts at pick 222 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
