Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
No fireworks, just a tidy B- for the Patriots.

The Patriots treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending pick 95 on Jaishawn Barham a full 23 spots early.

Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They left with edge rusher solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Emmanuel Pregnon
In No. 31 they get a building block for the line, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 Antonio Williams
They paid sticker price for Antonio Williams in Round 2, Pick 31, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick95 Rnd3 Jaishawn Barham
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jaishawn Barham in the Round 3 slot, miles early. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
