Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Patriots and Moss: B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Le'Veon Moss, the 211th overall pick, roughly 24 picks past where he belonged. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Carnell Tate at the 29th pick is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick62 Rnd2 CJ Allen
CJ Allen slipping to the Round 2 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick93 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
A safety of that caliber at No. 93 is the definition of value, full stop. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick118 Rnd4 Monroe Freeling
Monroe Freeling at the 118th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick130 Rnd4 DJ McKinney
They did well to land DJ McKinney in pick No. 130, just ahead of his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick169 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Tanner Koziol in slot 169. The roster fit checks out.
Pick198 Rnd6 Earnest Greene III
The board had Earnest Greene III higher than Round 6, Pick 17, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. It fills a real need, too.
Pick211 Rnd6 Le'Veon Moss
Steal is underselling it; Le'Veon Moss at pick 211 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick216 Rnd7 DeAndre Moore Jr.
DeAndre Moore Jr. in pick No. 216 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick244 Rnd7 Bryce Foster
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Bryce Foster at No. 244. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
