Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Maye is the Patriots' new face under center. Grade: B-.

After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Patriots committed. Drake Maye is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. On value alone, Smith makes the weekend a net positive. Pearl has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In pick No. 3 they get a passer to set the clock by. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
They took Jordan Morgan at par in No. 34, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at slot 68 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick103 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in the 103rd pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick137 Rnd5 Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash at the Round 5 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick180 Rnd6 Tykee Smith
Somehow Tykee Smith was still sitting there in the 180th overall pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick193 Rnd6 Julian Pearl
A conviction pick on Julian Pearl at pick 193 that the board grades a round light. It fits a board better than it fits this team.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jordan Magee
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jordan Magee in Round 7, Pick 11. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
