Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesD FutureA+
Quarterback settled, McCarthy in the fold, and a B- for the Patriots.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. J.J. McCarthy is the Patriots' quarterback, full stop. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. They will need McCarthy to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In slot 25 they get the arm they will build around, a steep price for the projection. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at pick 34 is a conviction pick that outran the value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick41 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
They took Patrick Paul at par in the 41st pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick59 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Fair-plus on Kingsley Suamataia, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick68 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in Round 3, Pick 4 is fair value, right on his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick103 Rnd4 Max Melton
A reach on Max Melton in the 103rd overall pick; the board had better options right there. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick139 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
By-the-book stuff, Dallin Holker at pick No. 139 squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick164 Rnd5 Cedric Johnson
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cedric Johnson in the Round 5 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jase McClellan
Good price on Jase McClellan in slot 224, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick235 Rnd7 Kedon Slovis
A straight-up fair deal on Kedon Slovis at the 235th pick, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
