Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB FutureB-
Maye is the Patriots' new face under center. Grade: B.

The one hole that towered over the rest is filled. The Patriots spent their marquee pick on Drake Maye, and for the first time in a while there is a real answer at quarterback. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.

The Clark steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Hopper has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In No. 3 they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick41 Rnd2 Adonai Mitchell
They did well to land Adonai Mitchell in the Round 2 slot, just ahead of his grade. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick68 Rnd3 Javon Bullard
They took Javon Bullard at par in slot 68, which is nothing to complain about. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick100 Rnd3 Blake Fisher
A straight-up fair deal on Blake Fisher at pick 100, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick109 Rnd4 Jamari Thrash
Jamari Thrash in the 109th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick139 Rnd5 Max Melton
Circle this one: Max Melton at pick No. 139 is a fall that decides a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick141 Rnd5 Ty'Ron Hopper
A premium they did not need to pay, Ty'Ron Hopper a notch or two before his time. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick181 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
A tidy bit of business in Round 6, Pick 6, where Frank Gore Jr. graded well above the range. The roster fit checks out.
Pick182 Rnd6 Kitan Oladapo
Somehow Kitan Oladapo was still sitting there in pick No. 182, and they pounced on premier safety value. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick201 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
The board had JD Bertrand higher than pick 201, and the linebacker fell to them anyway. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick224 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
De'Corian Clark at slot 224 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
