Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall D+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureF
The Patriots cashed the board's mistake on Abrams-Draine: D+.

When a board-topper like Kris Abrams-Draine slides to pick No. 224, you do not overthink it, and the Patriots did not.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

The verdict is not kind, and fairly so; this class has a hill to climb.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
They read the board right and Marvin Harrison Jr. was the payoff at the Round 1 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick34 Rnd2 Quinyon Mitchell
Quinyon Mitchell at Round 2, Pick 2 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jeremiah Trotter Jr.
Jeremiah Trotter Jr. in slot 68 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick103 Rnd4 Christian Mahogany
They robbed the room for Christian Mahogany here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick139 Rnd5 Cole Bishop
The board had Cole Bishop higher than No. 139, and the safety fell to them anyway. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick182 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at the 182nd overall pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick224 Rnd7 Kris Abrams-Draine
The board fumbled Kris Abrams-Draine all the way to the 224th pick, and they scooped it up. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick232 Rnd7 Omar Speights
Omar Speights at pick No. 232 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
