Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall

FutureA+
The Patriots let Proctor fall and pounced. Final grade: B+. The rest of the league will want that one back. Josh Proctor tumbling to the Patriots in Round 7, Pick 22 is a gift they did not have to think twice about. It nets out to a B+, which feels about right.
For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. Every board in the league had Chambers lower, and that gap is the story.
They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.
All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.
Pick Analysis
Pick16
Rnd1
JC Latham
In pick No. 16 they get protection for the quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick34
Rnd2
Bo Nix
Bo Nix at the 34th pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick38
Rnd2
Keon Coleman
No drama and no debate, Keon Coleman went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 6. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick68
Rnd3
Devontez Walker
A tidy little value on Devontez Walker in No. 68, a step better than break-even. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick81
Rnd3
Christian Haynes
Somehow Christian Haynes was still sitting there in pick 81, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick103
Rnd4
Kris Abrams-Draine
Kris Abrams-Draine in slot 103 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick137
Rnd5
Nehemiah Pritchett
Fair-plus on Nehemiah Pritchett, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
Pick180
Rnd6
Steele Chambers
A reach for Steele Chambers in the Round 6 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick193
Rnd6
Jared Wiley
Jared Wiley in No. 193 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick231
Rnd7
Trey Knox
Trey Knox at pick No. 231 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick242
Rnd7
Josh Proctor
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Josh Proctor in the 242nd overall pick, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
