Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
The Patriots let McGlothern fall and pounced. Final grade: B+.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Dwight McGlothern tumbling to the Patriots in Round 7, Pick 2 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick8 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In the 8th pick they get a home-run threat at receiver at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick27 Rnd1 Amarius Mims
In the 27th overall pick they get protection for the quarterback. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
No drama and no debate, Adonai Mitchell went about where he belonged in the Round 2 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick43 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
No edge and no loss on T'Vondre Sweat in Round 2, Pick 11; it is a wash and a sensible one. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jaylen Wright
A reach on Jaylen Wright in No. 68; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Braelon Allen. The roster fit checks out.
Pick136 Rnd4 Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade at pick No. 136 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick137 Rnd5 Marcus Harris
Marcus Harris in pick 137 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick182 Rnd6 Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki in the 182nd pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick222 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in pick No. 222 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick229 Rnd7 Trey Knox
Trey Knox at No. 229 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A need, and now a little less of one.
