Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Patriots: B.

The Patriots clearly saw something nobody else did in Patrick Payton, taking him 44 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The interior defensive lineman hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Landing Altmyer that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. Almost all the early capital went to that side of the ball.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In pick No. 30 they get a red-zone target to build around at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick63 Rnd2 A.J. Harris
By-the-book stuff, A.J. Harris at pick 63 squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick94 Rnd3 Monroe Freeling
They talked themselves into Monroe Freeling at Round 3, Pick 30, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jalon Kilgore
A quiet steal in the 130th overall pick: Jalon Kilgore for less than the market said. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick131 Rnd4 Nic Anderson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Nic Anderson in slot 131, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick170 Rnd5 Earnest Greene III
Earnest Greene III at No. 170 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick192 Rnd6 Patrick Payton
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Patrick Payton well ahead of where he belonged. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick193 Rnd6 Jaydn Ott
They did well to land Jaydn Ott in the 193rd pick, just ahead of his grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick203 Rnd6 Raylen Wilson
They jumped the gun on Raylen Wilson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick209 Rnd6 Drayk Bowen
They paid up for Drayk Bowen at pick 209 when waiting would have done the job. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick245 Rnd7 Luke Altmyer
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Luke Altmyer at pick No. 245. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick257 Rnd7 Brett Norfleet
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Brett Norfleet. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
