Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureA
The phones sank the Patriots this weekend: C+.

Nobody else had Solomon Tuliaupupu anywhere near pick 211. The Patriots did, by 102 spots, and that gap is the whole story. The final tally is a middling C+.

Lawson falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The trade table is where this weekend went wrong. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick62 Rnd2 Germie Bernard
Nothing to complain about; Germie Bernard went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick94 Rnd3 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson in pick No. 94 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick129 Rnd4 Terry Moore
Terry Moore at pick 129 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick130 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
Parker Brailsford at No. 130 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick169 Rnd5 Oscar Delp
A real head-scratcher, Oscar Delp in Round 5, Pick 30 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick170 Rnd5 Max Iheanachor
Max Iheanachor at slot 170 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick191 Rnd6 Bryce Boettcher
A tidy bit of business in pick 191, where Bryce Boettcher graded well above the range. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick201 Rnd6 Makhi Hughes
They went early on Makhi Hughes in No. 201, and the value did not follow. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick206 Rnd6 Isaiah Nwokobia
Isaiah Nwokobia in the Round 6 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick211 Rnd6 Solomon Tuliaupupu
A big swing on Solomon Tuliaupupu at Round 6, Pick 30, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick246 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
The board had Trey Zuhn III higher than the 246th pick, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. The roster fit checks out.
Pick256 Rnd7 Kayin Lee
A reach for Kayin Lee in slot 256; a little patience would have been rewarded. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
