Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots left with their quarterback, and a A- to match.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. J.J. McCarthy is the Patriots' quarterback, full stop. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A-.

Every board in the league had Magee lower, and that gap is the story. They banked enough surplus on Polk to cover a lot of smaller sins.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Bottom line, with J.J. McCarthy leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In pick No. 20 they get a long-term answer under center at fair value.
Pick45 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
The board had Ladd McConkey higher than the 45th overall pick, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick59 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
Good price on Javon Bullard in the 59th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick65 Rnd3 T.J. Tampa
Nothing to complain about; T.J. Tampa went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick100 Rnd3 Ray Davis
Ray Davis at Round 3, Pick 37 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick102 Rnd4 Jordan Magee
They talked themselves into Jordan Magee at No. 102, and the board did not agree. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick106 Rnd4 Ja'Lynn Polk
They barely believed it either: Ja'Lynn Polk still on the board at slot 106. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick123 Rnd4 Caedan Wallace
They liked Caedan Wallace enough to skip the value, taking him in the Round 4 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick154 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at pick 154 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick231 Rnd7 KT Leveston
KT Leveston slid further than he should have, and No. 231 is lovely value for the offensive lineman. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
