Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
Good, not great, for the Patriots: B.

Thirty-one other rooms let Aaron Anderson slide, and the Patriots were the ones holding the card at the 202nd pick. Highway robbery. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The Womack pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Edge rusher is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 LT Overton
In slot 19 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick55 Rnd2 Nyck Harbor
Nyck Harbor at No. 55 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick86 Rnd3 Whit Weeks
They jumped the gun on Whit Weeks, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick113 Rnd4 Blake Miller
Blake Miller in pick 113 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick121 Rnd4 Terry Moore
A market-rate safety, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Terry Moore. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick159 Rnd5 CJ Baxter
A top-tier running back at a bargain, CJ Baxter in the 159th pick, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick197 Rnd6 Kage Casey
They robbed the room for Kage Casey here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick202 Rnd6 Aaron Anderson
Aaron Anderson at the 202nd overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick224 Rnd7 Shamar Easter
No drama and no debate, Shamar Easter went about where he belonged in pick No. 224. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick241 Rnd7 Da'Shawn Womack
Da'Shawn Womack in Round 7, Pick 23 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
