Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
The Patriots bet the future on Penix Jr.. The board says A.

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

Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Newton. Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck.

They will need Hartman to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. Spending an early pick on cornerback with edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

In the end it comes back to Michael Penix Jr., and a haul good enough to build on right away.

Pick Analysis
Pick12 Rnd1 Michael Penix Jr.
In the Round 1 slot they get a long-term answer under center at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick15 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In pick No. 15 they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick35 Rnd2 Kool-Aid McKinstry
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kool-Aid McKinstry at Round 2, Pick 3. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick48 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Tyler Guyton in No. 48. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick68 Rnd3 Adonai Mitchell
Adonai Mitchell at the 68th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick82 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
Blake Fisher at pick 82 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick103 Rnd4 Tyrice Knight
They paid up for Tyrice Knight at slot 103 when waiting would have done the job. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick116 Rnd4 Josh Newton
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went cornerback with Josh Newton while clear needs at edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots sat open.
Pick172 Rnd5 Daijun Edwards
Daijun Edwards at pick No. 172 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick182 Rnd6 Sam Hartman
They reached into another round for Sam Hartman, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It fills a real need, too.
Pick224 Rnd7 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan at the Round 7 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
