Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Maye is the Patriots' new face under center. Grade: B.

After circling the position for what felt like forever, the Patriots committed. Drake Maye is the quarterback now, and the roster gets built to his timeline.

Oladapo falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In pick 3 they get their quarterback of the future. A real need, handled.
Pick34 Rnd2 Ladd McConkey
Ladd McConkey at the 34th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick68 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia in slot 68 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick104 Rnd4 Dominick Puni
A slide stopped in the 104th overall pick, with Dominick Puni worth more than the price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick136 Rnd4 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
They let Tyrone Tracy Jr. come to them and pounced at Round 4, Pick 36. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick182 Rnd6 Kitan Oladapo
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Kitan Oladapo in No. 182, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick229 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
The board had Josh Proctor higher than pick No. 229, and the safety fell to them anyway. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
