Draft Grade — Patriots

Larceny in slot 130 lands the Patriots a B, Klubnik and all.

The Patriots spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Cade Klubnik, the No. 93 name on the board, in No. 130.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher. Spending an early pick on cornerback with edge rusher and safety open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

Reaching for Kanak left real value on the table behind him.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
In the Round 1 slot they get a matchup problem out wide at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick62 Rnd2 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in the 62nd overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick94 Rnd3 Keith Abney II
The board fumbled Keith Abney II all the way to No. 94, and they scooped it up. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick124 Rnd4 Chris Johnson
A curious use of pick No. 124. Edge rusher and safety needed the pick; a cornerback in Chris Johnson did not.
Pick130 Rnd4 Cade Klubnik
Circle this one: Cade Klubnik at slot 130 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick155 Rnd5 Max Iheanachor
A reach on Max Iheanachor in the 155th pick; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick192 Rnd6 Gracen Halton
They paid sticker price for Gracen Halton in Round 6, Pick 12, and that is fine. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick199 Rnd6 Mark Fletcher Jr.
Mark Fletcher Jr. at pick 199 is a conviction pick that outran the value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick207 Rnd6 Jaren Kanak
Jaren Kanak in pick 207 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick245 Rnd7 Daevin Hobbs
They jumped the gun on Daevin Hobbs, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
