Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB- TradesB FutureA
The Patriots cashed the board's mistake on Wiggins: B+.

You could see the war room lean forward. Nate Wiggins at pick 44 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.

A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want. The Divine Deablo pickup adds a known quantity to a class of unknowns. The Hunt reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 JC Latham
JC Latham in pick 13 is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick34 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
Fair-plus on J.J. McCarthy, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It fills a real need, too.
Pick44 Rnd2 Nate Wiggins
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Nate Wiggins in the 44th pick, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick68 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
No drama and no debate, Patrick Paul went about where he belonged in No. 68. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick77 Rnd3 Cade Stover
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cade Stover in the 77th overall pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick103 Rnd4 Cole Bishop
By-the-book stuff, Cole Bishop at Round 4, Pick 3 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick137 Rnd5 Jalyx Hunt
Jalyx Hunt in the Round 5 slot is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden in slot 180 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick193 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
They paid sticker price for Curtis Jacobs in No. 193, and that is fine. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick231 Rnd7 Garret Greenfield
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 231, where Garret Greenfield graded well above the range. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
