Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall
C-
ValueD+
NeedB+
TradesF
FutureB+
The Patriots got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C-. The Jalen Thompson pick is the one that will follow the Patriots into the fall. They took him 132 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.
Stewart at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.
Pick Analysis
Pick29
Rnd1
Jordyn Tyson
In pick No. 29 they get a No. 1 receiver, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick44
Rnd2
R Mason Thomas
R Mason Thomas at slot 44 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76
Rnd3
Keon Sabb
No edge and no loss on Keon Sabb in Round 3, Pick 12; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112
Rnd4
Earnest Greene III
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Earnest Greene III. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick113
Rnd4
Josh Moten
A clean, defensible pick in pick 113 with a little surplus value in Josh Moten. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick116
Rnd4
Jalen Thompson
They talked themselves into Jalen Thompson at No. 116, and the board did not agree. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick124
Rnd4
Rasheem Biles
They left a pile of value on the table to take Rasheem Biles this early at the 124th overall pick. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick129
Rnd4
Evan Stewart
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 129, where Evan Stewart graded well above the range. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick145
Rnd5
Boubacar Traore
Boubacar Traore at slot 145 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick151
Rnd5
DJ Campbell
This one needs a full-page explanation: DJ Campbell in the Round 5 slot, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick190
Rnd6
Jaishawn Barham
They took Jaishawn Barham at par in pick 190, which is nothing to complain about. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick225
Rnd7
Akheem Mesidor
They reached into another round for Akheem Mesidor, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
