Draft Grade — Patriots

ValueA NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Larceny in Round 7, Pick 2 lands the Patriots a A-, Nussmeier and all.

The Patriots spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Garrett Nussmeier, the No. 62 name on the board, in slot 194.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Bottom line, they did the job about as well as it can be done.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In Round 1, Pick 26 they get a rangy last line of defense, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick53 Rnd2 Travis Hunter
Taking Travis Hunter in slot 53 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick85 Rnd3 Colston Loveland
Circle this one: Colston Loveland at the 85th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick95 Rnd3 Quinshon Judkins
Quinshon Judkins in the Round 3 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick98 Rnd4 Sonny Styles
A slide stopped in pick No. 98, with Sonny Styles worth more than the price. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick127 Rnd4 Oscar Delp
A tight end of that caliber at pick 127 is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick130 Rnd5 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery is a better player than the 130th pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick194 Rnd7 Garrett Nussmeier
They barely believed it either: Garrett Nussmeier still on the board at No. 194. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
