Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall
A-

TradesA+
FutureA+
The Patriots won the night they stopped Coker from sliding. Grade: A-. If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Patriots, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. A near-flawless weekend of work, and a A- to cap it.
Coker at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Solomon pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at interior defensive lineman and running back.
The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.
The kind of weekend a front office frames and hangs on the wall.
Pick Analysis
Pick15
Rnd1
JC Latham
In slot 15 they get protection for the quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick46
Rnd2
Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall at pick 46 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick68
Rnd3
Chris Braswell
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Chris Braswell in Round 3, Pick 4. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick86
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
Steal is underselling it; Ja'Lynn Polk at pick No. 86 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick106
Rnd4
Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson is a better player than No. 106 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick110
Rnd4
Javon Solomon
A want over a need in the Round 4 slot: Javon Solomon adds an OLB-EDGE while interior defensive lineman and running back keeps waiting.
Pick111
Rnd4
Gabriel Murphy
A reasonable price with a little left over, Gabriel Murphy in pick No. 111. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick119
Rnd4
Jarvis Brownlee Jr.
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Jarvis Brownlee Jr. at cornerback with interior defensive lineman and running back open.
Pick127
Rnd4
Brenden Rice
Good price on Brenden Rice in No. 127, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick137
Rnd5
Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha at Round 5, Pick 1 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick180
Rnd6
Tip Reiman
Tip Reiman slid further than he should have, and the Round 6 slot is lovely value for the tight end. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick193
Rnd6
Curtis Jacobs
Nothing to complain about; Curtis Jacobs went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick231
Rnd7
Joe Milton III
A quiet steal in the 231st pick: Joe Milton III for less than the market said. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick238
Rnd7
Jalen Coker
Circle this one: Jalen Coker at slot 238 is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
