Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureC
The Patriots worked the phones like thieves and earned a B.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Patriots started one anyway for Jalen Thompson, 85 picks ahead of schedule. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Anderson. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Cashius Howell
In the 30th overall pick they get a premier pass rusher. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick63 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Value with a capital V on Sonny Styles in the Round 2 slot, a genuine coup. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick94 Rnd3 Monroe Freeling
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Monroe Freeling well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick129 Rnd4 Chris Johnson
Chris Johnson at slot 129 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick130 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
The board had Bryce Lance higher than No. 130, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick137 Rnd4 Bray Hubbard
Bray Hubbard at pick No. 137 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the safety. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick169 Rnd5 Kage Casey
Kage Casey slipping to pick 169 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick170 Rnd5 Nic Anderson
They will replay Nic Anderson at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick197 Rnd6 Antonio Kite
Antonio Kite at No. 197 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick211 Rnd6 Jalen Thompson
Jalen Thompson in the 211th pick is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick216 Rnd7 Desmond Reid
Desmond Reid at Round 7, Pick 1 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
