Brady DRAFTING FOR THEPatriots

Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall
B+

FutureA+
No fireworks, just a tidy B+ for the Patriots. Nobody had Kedon Slovis this high, and it is not close. The Patriots reached 112 spots to get him at Round 6, Pick 18. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.
The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Patriots paired the rookies with proven help, Josh Myers leading the way.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick9
Rnd1
Rome Odunze
In pick 9 they get a No. 1 receiver at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick41
Rnd2
Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in the Round 2 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick68
Rnd3
Kingsley Suamataia
Fair-plus on Kingsley Suamataia, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick103
Rnd4
Matt Goncalves
Matt Goncalves in the 103rd overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick138
Rnd5
Mason McCormick
A conviction pick on Mason McCormick at Round 5, Pick 2 that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick180
Rnd6
Fabien Lovett
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Fabien Lovett. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick193
Rnd6
Kedon Slovis
Kedon Slovis at the Round 6 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
