Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA- FutureB+
Echoles should have been long gone. The Patriots pounced, and earned a B+.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Will Echoles, slot 57, roughly 39 picks past where he belonged. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.

The Wein reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.

It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick57 Rnd2 Will Echoles
Taking Will Echoles in pick No. 57 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick76 Rnd3 Kewan Lacy
Nothing to complain about; Kewan Lacy went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89 Rnd3 Faletau Satuala
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Faletau Satuala at pick 89 is the proof. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick94 Rnd3 Cooper Barkate
Value said wait; Cooper Barkate in Round 3, Pick 30 says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick99 Rnd3 Taylor Wein
This one needs a full-page explanation: Taylor Wein in slot 99, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick125 Rnd4 Brody Foley
No drama and no debate, Brody Foley went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick130 Rnd4 Koi Perich
Value with a capital V on Koi Perich in No. 130, a genuine coup. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick168 Rnd5 Tony Rojas
Steal is underselling it; Tony Rojas at the 168th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick189 Rnd6 T.J. Moore
T.J. Moore in No. 189 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick200 Rnd6 Emerson Mandell
They took Emerson Mandell at par in pick 200, which is nothing to complain about. The roster fit checks out.
Pick207 Rnd6 Christian Alliegro
Christian Alliegro slid further than he should have, and the 207th pick is lovely value for the linebacker. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick209 Rnd6 Sheridan Wilson
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Sheridan Wilson. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick246 Rnd7 Elliot Washington II
They talked themselves into Elliot Washington II at Round 7, Pick 30, and the board did not agree. It adds depth where they could use a little.
