Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots fleeced the room on the phones and earned a A.

The Patriots ran the phones like sharks, prying loose value on deal after deal until the ledger was lopsided. Little to argue with here, and the A says so.

That safety hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. If Jones pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

Add it up and this is about as clean as a draft weekend gets.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Dallas Turner
In pick 20 they get a double-digit-sack hope. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Xavier Legette
By-the-book stuff, Xavier Legette at the Round 2 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick52 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
A conviction pick on Kingsley Suamataia at slot 52 that the board grades a round light. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick68 Rnd3 Ruke Orhorhoro
Ruke Orhorhoro in No. 68 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick83 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
They took Dominick Puni at par in the 83rd overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick103 Rnd4 Elijah Jones
They paid a round early for Elijah Jones in the 103rd pick, more than the board wanted. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick137 Rnd5 Ben Sinnott
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Ben Sinnott at Round 5, Pick 1 is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
