Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
A passer of the future in McCarthy, and a A-, for the Patriots.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. J.J. McCarthy is the Patriots' quarterback, full stop.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Pritchett. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They are betting Worthy proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

In the end it comes back to J.J. McCarthy, and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick15 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In the 15th overall pick they get their quarterback of the future, though they paid up to get him. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Amarius Mims at pick No. 34 is the proof. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick47 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
They reached a country mile for Xavier Worthy at pick 47, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick68 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in No. 68 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick103 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray at the 103rd pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick137 Rnd5 Christian Jones
A tidy little value on Christian Jones in Round 5, Pick 1, a step better than break-even. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick180 Rnd6 Nehemiah Pritchett
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Nehemiah Pritchett in the Round 6 slot, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick191 Rnd6 Grayson Murphy
A quiet steal in slot 191: Grayson Murphy for less than the market said. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick193 Rnd6 Daijun Edwards
Daijun Edwards in the 193rd overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick231 Rnd7 Ryan Flournoy
Ryan Flournoy in slot 231 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
