Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
The Patriots left with their quarterback, and a B to match.

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

Reaching for Harrell left real value on the table behind him. The Bertrand value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They will regret leaving safety for another day if the season turns on it.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In No. 3 they get a long-term answer under center at fair value.
Pick34 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Troy Fautanu in the 34th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68 Rnd3 Devontez Walker
They did well to land Devontez Walker in the Round 3 slot, just ahead of his grade. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick107 Rnd4 Cam Hart
Value with a capital V on Cam Hart in slot 107, a genuine coup. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick136 Rnd4 Fabien Lovett
The board had cheaper options than Fabien Lovett at the 136th overall pick, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick182 Rnd6 Luke McCaffrey
Luke McCaffrey is a better player than pick No. 182 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jaylen Harrell
Jaylen Harrell at Round 6, Pick 9 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick229 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand in pick 229 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It adds depth where they could use a little.
