Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesB+ FutureA
The Patriots found their guy under center in Maye: B+.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Josh Williams, 83 picks early at slot 224.

The whole projection now runs through Drake Maye; hit there and everything else looks smarter. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Alexander at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The Patriots paired the rookies with proven help, Rob Havenstein leading the way.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In the 3rd overall pick they get a long-term answer under center. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick67 Rnd3 Ladd McConkey
They paid sticker price for Ladd McConkey in Round 3, Pick 3, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick106 Rnd4 Cam Hart
A straight-up fair deal on Cam Hart at slot 106, value and slot in agreement. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick140 Rnd5 Jonah Monheim
A reach on Jonah Monheim in pick No. 140; the board had better options right there. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick181 Rnd6 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander at No. 181 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick184 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
They took Michael Barrett at par in the 184th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick224 Rnd7 Josh Williams
Value said wait; Josh Williams in pick No. 224 says they were not listening. It fills a real need, too.
Pick227 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Sam Hartman well ahead of where he belonged. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
