Draft Grade — Patriots

The Patriots drew a line under the quarterback search with Daniels: B-.

The Patriots spent the pick that matters most on Jayden Daniels, and a roster that has been waiting on a passer can start to take shape.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. That is a linebacker worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Jayden Daniels
In pick 3 they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
They took Jordan Morgan at par in pick No. 34, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick68 Rnd3 Cooper Beebe
A reasonable price with a little left over, Cooper Beebe in slot 68. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick103 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson slid further than he should have, and the 103rd overall pick is lovely value for the cornerback. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick137 Rnd5 Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith at No. 137 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick180 Rnd6 Ty'Ron Hopper
Ty'Ron Hopper at the 180th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick193 Rnd6 Rasheen Ali
No edge and no loss on Rasheen Ali in Round 6, Pick 18; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jaylan Ford
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jaylan Ford in the Round 7 slot. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
