Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesD FutureA+
McCarthy is the Patriots' new face under center. Grade: B.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. J.J. McCarthy is the Patriots' quarterback, full stop. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is McCormick. Reaching for DeLoach left real value on the table behind him.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the wide receiver spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In pick 23 they get their guy under center for the next decade. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 JC Latham
JC Latham in the Round 2 slot is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick35 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton at the 35th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick59 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
A quiet steal in the 59th pick: Chris Braswell for less than the market said. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick68 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
A tidy bit of business in Round 3, Pick 4, where Payton Wilson graded well above the range. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick86 Rnd3 Cade Stover
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Cade Stover in slot 86. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick103 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
They barely believed it either: Khyree Jackson still on the board at pick No. 103. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick137 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
The board had cheaper options than Jalyx Hunt at No. 137, and it noticed. The roster logic is harder to follow.
Pick180 Rnd6 Mason McCormick
Mason McCormick in No. 180 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick193 Rnd6 Daijun Edwards
Nothing to complain about; Daijun Edwards went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick231 Rnd7 Kalen DeLoach
They paid up for Kalen DeLoach at the 231st overall pick when waiting would have done the job. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
