Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Patriots.

The tape said wait; the Patriots did not. Kalil Alexander went at slot 208, a good 45 picks before the board was ready. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped interior defensive lineman, which is a strange place to end up. The Terrell pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Avieon Terrell
In pick No. 25 they get a potential shutdown corner at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick60 Rnd2 Elijah Sarratt
Elijah Sarratt at the 60th overall pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick91 Rnd3 Drew Shelton
They paid sticker price for Drew Shelton in the 91st pick, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick116 Rnd4 Kaytron Allen
A tidy bit of business in slot 116, where Kaytron Allen graded well above the range. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick126 Rnd4 Tao Johnson
No drama and no debate, Tao Johnson went about where he belonged in pick 126. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick166 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
Nothing to complain about; Tanner Koziol went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick195 Rnd6 Rasheem Biles
Rasheem Biles in slot 195 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick208 Rnd6 Kalil Alexander
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kalil Alexander well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick221 Rnd7 Bryce Foster
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Bryce Foster. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick244 Rnd7 Smith Snowden
Smith Snowden in pick No. 244 is fair value, right on his grade. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
