Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A-.

The war room fell hard for McKade Mettauer, and it showed at the Round 7 slot: 48 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

The Wright pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick 11 they get a cornerstone up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick21 Rnd1 JC Latham
In the 21st overall pick they get a blindside protector at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
A conviction pick on J.J. McCarthy at the Round 2 slot that the board grades a round light. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick37 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Xavier Worthy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick38 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
A reach for Ja'Tavion Sanders in slot 38; a little patience would have been rewarded. The roster fit checks out.
Pick42 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton in No. 42 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick68 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at the 68th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick69 Rnd3 Bucky Irving
They talked themselves into Bucky Irving at pick No. 69, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick103 Rnd4 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at slot 103 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick139 Rnd5 James Williams
Good price on James Williams in the Round 5 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick142 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
A wild overpay on Joe Milton III in Round 5, Pick 6, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jaylen Wright
You do not let a running back like Jaylen Wright reach the 182nd pick and blink. They did not. It fills a real need, too.
Pick184 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
A straight-up fair deal on Michael Barrett at No. 184, value and slot in agreement. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jawhar Jordan
Jawhar Jordan slipping to pick 224 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick232 Rnd7 McKade Mettauer
They left a pile of value on the table to take McKade Mettauer this early at the 232nd overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
