Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall
B-
ValueB-
NeedB+

FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Patriots a B-. For all the boxes ticked, the Patriots skipped the loudest one: edge rusher is exactly as bare as it was. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.
Reaching for Rodriguez left real value on the table behind him. They went 1 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick31
Rnd1
KC Concepcion
In pick 31 they get a matchup problem out wide. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63
Rnd2
Jacob Rodriguez
They went early on Jacob Rodriguez in Round 2, Pick 31, and the value did not follow. It adds depth where they could use a little.
