Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B

Larceny in pick No. 140 lands the Patriots a B, Jackson and all.

Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Patriots never addressed edge rusher, and it is the kind of gap that lingers.

That is a cornerback worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In the Round 1 slot they get a go-to option on the outside. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
They went early on J.J. McCarthy in slot 35, and the value did not follow. It fills a real need, too.
Pick103 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
Dominick Puni in the 103rd pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick140 Rnd5 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson in the 140th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick224 Rnd7 Isaiah Neyor
They read the board right and Isaiah Neyor was the payoff at pick 224. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
