Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
McGlothern should have been long gone. The Patriots pounced, and earned a B-.

You could see the war room lean forward. Dwight McGlothern at slot 231 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. Reaching for McCarthy left real value on the table behind him.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Joe Alt
In No. 3 they get a blindside protector. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
They paid a round early for J.J. McCarthy in the 34th overall pick, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
They barely believed it either: Keon Coleman still on the board at the Round 3 slot. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick102 Rnd4 Braelon Allen
By-the-book stuff, Braelon Allen at slot 102 squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick136 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at the 136th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick179 Rnd6 Mason McCormick
Somehow Mason McCormick was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 4, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick231 Rnd7 Dwight McGlothern
Circle this one: Dwight McGlothern at pick No. 231 is a fall that decides a draft. A minor itch, scratched.
