Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots worked the phones like thieves and earned a A-.

The Patriots looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Jake Slaughter at the Round 7 slot regardless, 71 picks early. Very little went wrong, and the A- is earned.

They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Muhammad falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Bottom line, with Tre Harris leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Tre Harris
In No. 11 they get a go-to option on the outside. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick59 Rnd2 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson at the 59th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick72 Rnd3 Xavier Nwankpa
Xavier Nwankpa at the 72nd overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick85 Rnd3 Jabbar Muhammad
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jabbar Muhammad in the Round 3 slot. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick108 Rnd4 Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at Round 4, Pick 7 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick144 Rnd5 Donovan Edwards
Donovan Edwards at slot 144 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick216 Rnd7 Haynes King
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Haynes King at pick 216. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick218 Rnd7 Jake Slaughter
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Jake Slaughter. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick228 Rnd7 Kyren Lacy
Kyren Lacy is a better player than pick No. 228 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
