Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureC
The Patriots won the night they stopped McCord from sliding. Grade: B.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Kyle McCord tumbling to the Patriots in pick 220 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

Travis has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Kelvin Banks Jr.
They took Kelvin Banks Jr. at par in Round 1, Pick 4, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick38 Rnd2 Tre Harris
A reach on Tre Harris in the 38th overall pick; the board had better options right there. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick56 Rnd2 Harold Fannin Jr.
They did well to land Harold Fannin Jr. in pick No. 56, just ahead of his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick77 Rnd3 Darien Porter
A straight-up fair deal on Darien Porter at No. 77, value and slot in agreement. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jacob Parrish
Taking Jacob Parrish in the Round 5 slot is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick217 Rnd7 Isaac TeSlaa
They reached a country mile for Isaac TeSlaa at pick 217, and the board is aghast. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick220 Rnd7 Kyle McCord
Steal is underselling it; Kyle McCord at slot 220 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick223 Rnd7 Teddye Buchanan
A big swing on Teddye Buchanan at the 223rd pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jalen Travis
Jalen Travis at slot 238 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
