Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Patriots: B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Marvin Jones Jr. at slot 247. The Patriots jumped the board by 88 and dared it to prove them wrong. It nets out to a B-, which feels about right.

Landing Golday that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 KC Concepcion
In slot 31 they get a true top target. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick63 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
They paid up for Max Iheanachor at No. 63 when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick95 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Taking Jake Golday in the 95th pick is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick125 Rnd4 Dametrious Crownover
Dametrious Crownover in pick No. 125 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick131 Rnd4 Eli Raridon
Nothing to complain about; Eli Raridon went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169 Rnd5 Treydan Stukes
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Treydan Stukes in pick 169. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick189 Rnd6 Oscar Delp
By-the-book stuff, Oscar Delp at No. 189 squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick200 Rnd6 Le'Veon Moss
Le'Veon Moss at Round 6, Pick 21 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick207 Rnd6 Bud Clark
Bud Clark at the 207th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick210 Rnd6 Charles Jagusah
A tidy bit of business in pick 210, where Charles Jagusah graded well above the range. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick247 Rnd7 Marvin Jones Jr.
Marvin Jones Jr. at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
