Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Nobody dealt better than the Patriots this weekend: A-.

The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Patriots reached some 33 spots for Michael Pratt, and value like that does not grow back. One of the weekend's best, top to bottom, and a A- to show for it.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They will answer for taking TE-EDGE early while interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots went begging.

The Burton pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In slot 24 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick34 Rnd2 Amarius Mims
They read the board right and Amarius Mims was the payoff at the 34th pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick47 Rnd2 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie in No. 47 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick56 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
The board had T.J. Tampa higher than pick No. 56, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick68 Rnd3 Jermaine Burton
Value with a capital V on Jermaine Burton in Round 3, Pick 4, a genuine coup. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick87 Rnd3 Cade Stover
A surprising call. With interior defensive lineman, safety and other spots still to address, they spent the Round 3 slot on Cade Stover, a TE-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick104 Rnd4 Michael Pratt
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Michael Pratt well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick136 Rnd4 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker at the 136th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
A tidy little value on Jha'Quan Jackson in the Round 6 slot, a step better than break-even. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick229 Rnd7 Carter Bradley
Carter Bradley at the 229th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
