Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureC+
The Patriots let Dixon fall into their laps, and walked away with a B+.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Patriots watched Johnny Dixon slide 66 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. Good, not great, and the B+ says as much.

The Gore Jr. pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Marvin Harrison Jr.
In the 3rd pick they get a No. 1 receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick34 Rnd2 J.J. McCarthy
A tidy little value on J.J. McCarthy in No. 34, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
No edge and no loss on Patrick Paul in the 68th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick103 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A slide stopped in Round 4, Pick 3, with Khyree Jackson worth more than the price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick137 Rnd5 Theo Johnson
They let Theo Johnson come to them and pounced at pick No. 137. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick180 Rnd6 Jaheim Bell
A quiet steal in pick 180: Jaheim Bell for less than the market said. The roster fit checks out.
Pick193 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in the Round 6 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick256 Rnd7 Johnny Dixon
They robbed the room for Johnny Dixon here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick257 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman in the 257th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
