Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Patriots: B-.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Patriots spent Round 2, Pick 30 on Anthony Smith, a name the board had a full 29 spots lower.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Dashawn Spears
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Dashawn Spears. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick62 Rnd2 Anthony Smith
They left a pile of value on the table to take Anthony Smith this early at the 62nd overall pick. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick94 Rnd3 Ashton Hampton
Ashton Hampton at No. 94 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick125 Rnd4 Koi Perich
Koi Perich in slot 125 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130 Rnd4 Omarion Miller
No drama and no debate, Omarion Miller went about where he belonged in pick No. 130. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick168 Rnd5 Benjamin Brahmer
A reach on Benjamin Brahmer in Round 5, Pick 30; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick189 Rnd6 Christian Alliegro
Christian Alliegro at the Round 6 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jehiem Oatis
Jehiem Oatis in pick 200 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick207 Rnd6 T.J. Moore
T.J. Moore in pick No. 207 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick209 Rnd6 Charles Jagusah
A wild overpay on Charles Jagusah in the 209th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick246 Rnd7 DeSean Bishop
DeSean Bishop at the 246th pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
