Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall
B+

FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Patriots a B+. There is reaching, and then there is CJ Daniels at No. 125. The Patriots jumped the board by 52 and dared it to prove them wrong. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.
On value alone, Loveland makes the weekend a net positive. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
The Patriots paired the rookies with proven help, Joe Alt leading the way.
Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick45
Rnd2
Colston Loveland
Colston Loveland at the Round 2 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick56
Rnd2
Mitchell Evans
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Mitchell Evans at the 56th pick is the proof. It fills a real need, too.
Pick77
Rnd3
Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in slot 77 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick125
Rnd4
CJ Daniels
CJ Daniels at No. 125 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130
Rnd5
Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori slipping to Round 5, Pick 2 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
