Draft Grade — Patriots

The Patriots won the night they stopped Edwards from sliding. Grade: B. The Patriots did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Donovan Edwards fell into the 238th overall pick. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.
Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Ashton Jeanty
In No. 14 they get a workhorse for the backfield at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick38
Rnd2
Jalon Walker
Jalon Walker at pick No. 38 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick45
Rnd2
Trey Amos
Trey Amos at the 45th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick106
Rnd4
Xavier Restrepo
Xavier Restrepo in slot 106 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick144
Rnd5
Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at the Round 5 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick171
Rnd5
Chase Lundt
Chase Lundt at the 171st overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick238
Rnd7
Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards in pick 238 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
