Draft Grade — Patriots

FutureA+
The Patriots won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: A. Some picks age like wine; Taulia Tagovailoa at pick No. 245 will need to, sitting 61 spots clear of his grade. This is how you run a draft, and the A reflects it.
The Bowers pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.
The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.
In the end it comes back to Olumuyiwa Fashanu, and a haul good enough to build on right away.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In pick 25 they get a building block for the line, outstanding value to boot.
Pick34
Rnd2
Rome Odunze
Rome Odunze at the 34th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick38
Rnd2
Brock Bowers
A tight end of that caliber at Round 2, Pick 6 is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick68
Rnd3
Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in slot 68 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick88
Rnd3
Marshawn Kneeland
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Marshawn Kneeland at the 88th pick is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick103
Rnd4
Andru Phillips
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Andru Phillips in pick No. 103, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick137
Rnd5
Ainias Smith
Ainias Smith in the 137th pick is fair value, right on his grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick180
Rnd6
Dylan Laube
Dylan Laube slipping to the 180th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick193
Rnd6
Beau Brade
Beau Brade in pick No. 193 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick202
Rnd6
Javontae Jean-Baptiste
Javontae Jean-Baptiste at No. 202 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick231
Rnd7
Nathan Thomas
Steal is underselling it; Nathan Thomas at the Round 7 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick245
Rnd7
Taulia Tagovailoa
A big swing on Taulia Tagovailoa at slot 245, well ahead of any board in the building. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
