Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall
B

FutureB-
The Patriots did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B. For all the boxes ticked, the Patriots skipped the loudest one: edge rusher is exactly as bare as it was. More right than wrong, and a B to match.
On value alone, Egbuka makes the weekend a net positive. The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Ashton Jeanty
They took Ashton Jeanty at par in Round 1, Pick 4, which is nothing to complain about. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick38
Rnd2
Emeka Egbuka
They let Emeka Egbuka come to them and pounced at pick No. 38. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
