FutureA+
The Patriots bled value on every deal, hence the B-. You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Patriots did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high.
The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.
Running back is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Will Campbell
In slot 11 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A real need, handled.
Pick41
Rnd2
Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in Round 2, Pick 9 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick50
Rnd2
Ollie Gordon II
They took Ollie Gordon II at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
