Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Patriots a A-.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Patriots, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.

If McGregor pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want.

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Williams.

Add it up and few war rooms did better this weekend, Xavier Legette and all.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Xavier Legette
In the 29th pick they get a No. 1 receiver, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick38 Rnd2 Ja'Tavion Sanders
Ja'Tavion Sanders at the 38th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick68 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
No drama and no debate, Patrick Paul went about where he belonged in slot 68. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick103 Rnd4 Spencer Rattler
The board had cheaper options than Spencer Rattler at pick 103, and it noticed. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick108 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo in pick No. 108 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick137 Rnd5 Christian Jones
Good price on Christian Jones in the Round 5 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick145 Rnd5 Braiden McGregor
A wild overpay on Braiden McGregor in No. 145, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick147 Rnd5 Jaylin Simpson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jaylin Simpson at Round 5, Pick 11 is the proof. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick180 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at Round 6, Pick 5 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick193 Rnd6 Isaiah Williams
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Isaiah Williams at the 193rd overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick231 Rnd7 Tatum Bethune
A tidy little value on Tatum Bethune in the Round 7 slot, a step better than break-even. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick249 Rnd7 Keaton Bills
A tidy bit of business in the 249th pick, where Keaton Bills graded well above the range. It fills a real need, too.
