Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Patriots a B-.

The Patriots bet big and early on Marvin Jones Jr., 91 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Getting Johnson where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
In the 31st overall pick they get a No. 1 receiver. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 Malachi Fields
They paid up for Malachi Fields at No. 63 when waiting would have done the job. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick95 Rnd3 Keylan Rutledge
The board had cheaper options than Keylan Rutledge at Round 3, Pick 31, and it noticed. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick126 Rnd4 Eli Raridon
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Eli Raridon. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick131 Rnd4 Beau Stephens
A premium they did not need to pay, Beau Stephens a notch or two before his time. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick169 Rnd5 Albert Regis
Albert Regis at pick 169 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick189 Rnd6 Lander Barton
Lander Barton in the Round 6 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick200 Rnd6 David Gusta
David Gusta in the 200th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick207 Rnd6 Le'Veon Moss
They did well to land Le'Veon Moss in Round 6, Pick 28, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick210 Rnd6 Tyler Onyedim
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tyler Onyedim in slot 210, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick220 Rnd7 Dalton Johnson
They robbed the room for Dalton Johnson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick228 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
Fair-plus on Jeff Caldwell, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Marvin Jones Jr.
Marvin Jones Jr. at pick No. 247 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
