Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Patriots bled value on every deal, hence the D.

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Patriots took Garrett Dellinger at the 186th pick, roughly 105 spots before his name belonged.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped safety, which is a strange place to end up.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and safety is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick9 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In the Round 1 slot they get a centerpiece for the ground game at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
They liked Aireontae Ersery enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 38. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick69 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dylan Fairchild this early at the 69th pick. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick76 Rnd3 Jared Ivey
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jared Ivey. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick77 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Darius Alexander. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick111 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer at No. 111 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
Emery Jones Jr. in Round 4, Pick 29 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick133 Rnd4 Raheim Sanders
Value said wait; Raheim Sanders in the Round 4 slot says they were not listening. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick170 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
A reach on Dont'e Thornton Jr. in No. 170; the board had better options right there. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick186 Rnd6 Garrett Dellinger
Garrett Dellinger in pick 186 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick211 Rnd6 Sam Brown
They reached into another round for Sam Brown, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick222 Rnd7 CJ West
They did well to land CJ West in slot 222, just ahead of his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
