Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Patriots won the weekend at the trade table. Grade: B.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Patriots spent the Round 5 slot on CJ Daniels, a name the board had a full 33 spots lower. No fireworks, but a solid B.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick34 Rnd2 Emery Jones
No drama and no debate, Emery Jones went about where he belonged in the 34th overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick58 Rnd2 Quincy Riley
A reach on Quincy Riley in pick 58; the board had better options right there. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick66 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba in No. 66 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick98 Rnd4 Oscar Delp
Oscar Delp at the Round 4 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick131 Rnd5 Bryson Nesbit
A straight-up fair deal on Bryson Nesbit at slot 131, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick142 Rnd5 CJ Daniels
A big swing on CJ Daniels at Round 5, Pick 14, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick196 Rnd7 Miles Frazier
They reached a country mile for Miles Frazier at slot 196, and the board is aghast. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
