Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Patriots turned the phones into found money: B.

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Patriots started one anyway for CJ Daniels, 44 picks ahead of schedule.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. However the rest shakes out, Ersery at that price is a win they earned.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick34 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea in Round 2, Pick 2 lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick58 Rnd2 Quincy Riley
A reach on Quincy Riley in pick 58; the board had better options right there. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick68 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick98 Rnd4 Nick Emmanwori
A big swing on Nick Emmanwori at the 98th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick122 Rnd4 Aireontae Ersery
Nice patience on Aireontae Ersery, who had no business lasting to slot 122. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick130 Rnd5 Bryson Nesbit
Bryson Nesbit at the 130th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick131 Rnd5 CJ Daniels
Value said wait; CJ Daniels in No. 131 says they were not listening. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick194 Rnd7 Dylan Fairchild
They jumped the gun on Dylan Fairchild, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
