A respectable, level-headed haul for the Patriots: B-.

There is a lot to like until you notice edge rusher is still a hole. The Patriots never got to the one that mattered most.

They went 2 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
In the 31st overall pick they get a true top target. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick63 Rnd2 Zakee Wheatley
No drama and no debate, Zakee Wheatley went about where he belonged in No. 63. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick95 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Harold Perkins Jr. at the 95th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A minor itch, scratched.
