Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
The Patriots answered their biggest question with Williams. Grade: A-.

Start where it matters. The Patriots took Caleb Williams to run the offense for the next decade, and every other decision this weekend bends around that one.

The Hall pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. However the rest shakes out, Tracy Jr. at that price is a win they earned.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

In the end it comes back to Caleb Williams, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick5 Rnd1 Caleb Williams
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term answer under center. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Ja'Tavion Sanders. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick65 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at Round 3, Pick 1 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick68 Rnd3 Zach Frazier
Zach Frazier at No. 68 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick103 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A slide stopped in the 103rd overall pick, with Khyree Jackson worth more than the price. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick123 Rnd4 Javon Foster
Javon Foster at pick No. 123 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick127 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in pick 127 is fair value, right on his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick137 Rnd5 Chau Smith-Wade
Nice patience on Chau Smith-Wade, who had no business lasting to the 137th pick. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick180 Rnd6 Gabe Hall
A big swing on Gabe Hall at the 180th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick193 Rnd6 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. at pick No. 193 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
Taking Jase McClellan in the 231st overall pick is close to grand larceny; a running back that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
