Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Patriots: B.

For all the boxes ticked, the Patriots skipped the loudest one: wide receiver is exactly as bare as it was. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Abdul Carter
Abdul Carter at the Round 1 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
No drama and no debate, Jonah Savaiinaea went about where he belonged in pick No. 38. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
