Draft Grade — Patriots

FutureA+
The Patriots won the night they stopped Coleman from sliding. Grade: B+. The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Patriots watched Jonah Coleman slide 95 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.
The cost of the Rogers reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.
The Matt Goncalves deal gives the class an established piece to lean on. The trade work was a quiet net positive.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick14
Rnd1
Tyler Warren
In slot 14 they get a seam-stretching tight end, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41
Rnd2
Harold Fannin Jr.
Circle this one: Harold Fannin Jr. at the 41st pick is a fall that decides a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick49
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
The board fumbled Nick Emmanwori all the way to pick No. 49, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick72
Rnd3
Jordan James
Jordan James in No. 72 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick80
Rnd3
Isaiah Bond
You do not let a wide receiver like Isaiah Bond reach Round 3, Pick 16 and blink. They did not. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick114
Rnd4
Smael Mondon Jr.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Smael Mondon Jr. in the 114th overall pick, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick122
Rnd4
Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in pick 122 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick144
Rnd5
Jaeden Roberts
Fair-plus on Jaeden Roberts, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick198
Rnd6
Benjamin Morrison
A tidy bit of business in Round 6, Pick 23, where Benjamin Morrison graded well above the range. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick218
Rnd7
Kyren Lacy
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kyren Lacy well ahead of where he belonged. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick220
Rnd7
PJ Williams
PJ Williams at No. 220 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick228
Rnd7
Jamon Dumas-Johnson
Somehow Jamon Dumas-Johnson was still sitting there in pick No. 228, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick236
Rnd7
Jonah Coleman
They will replay Jonah Coleman at the Round 7 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick256
Rnd7
Will Rogers
A wild overpay on Will Rogers in pick 256, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. The roster fit checks out.
