Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureB
Nobody dealt better than the Patriots this weekend: B+.

The Patriots treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending No. 221 on Elliot Washington II a full 38 spots early. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it. However the rest shakes out, Zuhn III at that price is a win they earned.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 Carnell Tate
In pick 25 they get a weapon on the perimeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick91 Rnd3 Caleb Tiernan
They paid sticker price for Caleb Tiernan in No. 91, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jadarian Price
A wild overpay on Jadarian Price in Round 4, Pick 16, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick126 Rnd4 Boubacar Traore
They left a pile of value on the table to take Boubacar Traore this early at the Round 4 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick166 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol in the 166th overall pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick208 Rnd6 DeAndre Moore Jr.
By-the-book stuff, DeAndre Moore Jr. at pick No. 208 squarely in line with his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick221 Rnd7 Elliot Washington II
Elliot Washington II at the 221st overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick244 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
The board fumbled Trey Zuhn III all the way to slot 244, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
