Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueA NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Ward should have been long gone. The Patriots pounced, and earned a A-.

The rest of the league will want that one back. Cam Ward tumbling to the Patriots in No. 194 is a gift they did not have to think twice about.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. It is not that Starks is a bad player; it is that the Patriots had louder needs to answer first.

The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

Bottom line, with Ashton Jeanty leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Ashton Jeanty
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a centerpiece for the ground game at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick34 Rnd2 Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at pick No. 34 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick39 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 39 on Malaki Starks with edge rusher, safety and other spots unsolved.
Pick66 Rnd3 Walter Nolen
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Walter Nolen in the 66th pick, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick98 Rnd4 Jahdae Barron
Of all the spots to shop, they chose defensive back. Jahdae Barron in the Round 4 slot leaves edge rusher, safety and other spots for later.
Pick99 Rnd4 Kenneth Grant
Somehow Kenneth Grant was still sitting there in the 99th overall pick, and they pounced on premier interior defensive lineman value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick100 Rnd4 Tre Harris
Tre Harris in pick 100 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick194 Rnd7 Cam Ward
They robbed the room for Cam Ward here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
