Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
The Patriots let Allen fall and pounced. Final grade: A-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Patriots watched LeQuint Allen slide 69 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. One of the weekend's best, top to bottom, and a A- to show for it.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The cost of the Ivey reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Adding Riley Moss by trade rounds out the weekend beyond the rookies.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick20 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In the Round 1 slot they get protection for the quarterback. A real need, handled.
Pick38 Rnd2 Matthew Golden
Matthew Golden in pick 38 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick45 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Trey Amos at the 45th overall pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick51 Rnd2 Tre Harris
Tre Harris at No. 51 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick69 Rnd3 Jared Ivey
They went early on Jared Ivey in pick No. 69, and the value did not follow. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick77 Rnd3 Marcus Mbow
Marcus Mbow in the 77th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick105 Rnd4 Carson Schwesinger
They robbed the room for Carson Schwesinger here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick121 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore in slot 121 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick145 Rnd5 Cody Simon
Cody Simon is a better player than No. 145 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick199 Rnd6 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. in pick 199 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick210 Rnd6 LeQuint Allen
Steal is underselling it; LeQuint Allen at the 210th overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. The roster fit checks out.
Pick219 Rnd7 Karene Reid
You do not let a linebacker like Karene Reid reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick222 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
They barely believed it either: Luke Lachey still on the board at pick No. 222. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick240 Rnd7 Addison West
Circle this one: Addison West at Round 7, Pick 22 is a fall that decides a draft. A need, and now a little less of one.
