Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall D+
ValueB NeedB TradesF FutureB-
Maye is the Patriots' new face under center. Grade: D+.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Patriots, and the value they bled adds up to real damage. A D+ that will need time and luck to look better.

Everything downstream of Drake Maye depends on Drake Maye, and the building knows it. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. The Morgan pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

The Holker pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In the 3rd pick they get the face of the franchise. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Terrion Arnold
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Terrion Arnold in Round 2, Pick 2. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick54 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in pick 54 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick104 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
The board fumbled Jalen McMillan all the way to the Round 4 slot, and they scooped it up. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick136 Rnd4 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at slot 136 is a conviction pick that outran the value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick228 Rnd7 Austin Stogner
Austin Stogner at No. 228 is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. The roster fit checks out.
Pick229 Rnd7 Jha'Quan Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Jha'Quan Jackson at pick No. 229 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
