Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Patriots let Hardy fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

The Patriots did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Daequan Hardy fell into slot 229. No fireworks, but a solid B.

If Pratt pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

They came away with juice, if not much beef up front.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
They took Marvin Harrison Jr. at par in No. 3, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick39 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Troy Fautanu at slot 39. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick68 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Nothing to complain about; Kiran Amegadjie went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick104 Rnd4 Michael Pratt
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Michael Pratt well ahead of where he belonged. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick136 Rnd4 Marcus Harris
No edge and no loss on Marcus Harris in Round 4, Pick 36; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick140 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
They reached into another round for Dallin Holker, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
Jha'Quan Jackson at the 182nd pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick229 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
Circle this one: Daequan Hardy at pick 229 is a fall that decides a draft. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
