Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Quarterback settled, Maye in the fold, and a B- for the Patriots.

The search is over. The Patriots handed the keys to Drake Maye, and the whole operation now runs on his development. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

Mills has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In pick No. 3 they get the arm they will build around. A real need, handled.
Pick35 Rnd2 Xavier Worthy
Nothing to complain about; Xavier Worthy went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick67 Rnd3 Amarius Mims
Amarius Mims at the 67th pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The roster fit checks out.
Pick103 Rnd4 Jalen McMillan
Jalen McMillan in the Round 4 slot is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick140 Rnd5 Mike Sainristil
A conviction pick on Mike Sainristil at the 140th overall pick that the board grades a round light. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick181 Rnd6 Jaden Hicks
A straight-up fair deal on Jaden Hicks at pick 181, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick224 Rnd7 Rylie Mills
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Rylie Mills well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
