Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Patriots kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

Nobody else had Patrick Payton anywhere near pick 202. The Patriots did, by 39 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

The Moss pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman.

Edge rusher was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In the Round 1 slot they get a security blanket over the middle, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Germie Bernard
Germie Bernard in No. 62 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Jake Golday is a better player than the 94th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick125 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
Good price on Domani Jackson in pick No. 125, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick130 Rnd4 Blake Miller
Blake Miller at pick 130 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick168 Rnd5 LJ Martin
A clean, defensible pick in the 168th overall pick with a little surplus value in LJ Martin. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick191 Rnd6 Oscar Delp
The board had cheaper options than Oscar Delp at No. 191, and it noticed. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick202 Rnd6 Patrick Payton
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Patrick Payton. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick208 Rnd6 Xavier Nwankpa
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Xavier Nwankpa at the 208th pick is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick211 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson at slot 211 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick246 Rnd7 Miller Moss
Miller Moss at pick 246 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
