Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall C
ValueC+ NeedB TradesD FutureC
The Patriots lost the trade table, and the C tells the story.

The Patriots did not so much draft Derrick Moore as overpay for him, 49 picks clear of his grade. It sets an uneasy tone for the weekend. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C.

They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Davis. The roster is better shaped than it was, with edge rusher chief among the fixes.

Hit on Chris Brazzell II and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
A reasonable price with a little left over, Chris Brazzell II in the 30th pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick47 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
The board had Sonny Styles higher than slot 47, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick94 Rnd3 Derrick Moore
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Derrick Moore. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick109 Rnd4 LJ Martin
They left a pile of value on the table to take LJ Martin this early at Round 4, Pick 9. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick117 Rnd4 Bray Hubbard
Bray Hubbard in the 117th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick129 Rnd4 Tacario Davis
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Tacario Davis in No. 129. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick130 Rnd4 Logan Jones
A straight-up fair deal on Logan Jones at pick 130, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick169 Rnd5 Duce Robinson
A tidy little value on Duce Robinson in No. 169, a step better than break-even. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick191 Rnd6 Rayshaun Benny
A clean, defensible pick in slot 191 with a little surplus value in Rayshaun Benny. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick201 Rnd6 Jaren Kanak
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jaren Kanak. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick208 Rnd6 Amare Campbell
A conviction pick on Amare Campbell at the 208th overall pick that the board grades a round light. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick211 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
By-the-book stuff, Trey Zuhn III at pick No. 211 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick246 Rnd7 Haynes King
A big swing on Haynes King at the 246th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
