Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Patriots finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a B-.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Drake Maye is the Patriots' quarterback, full stop. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. They are betting Rosengarten proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The offense got the lion's share of the attention.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Drake Maye
In No. 3 they get their quarterback of the future. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan at the Round 2 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick68 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
Kiran Amegadjie at pick No. 68 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick104 Rnd4 Matt Goncalves
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Matt Goncalves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick136 Rnd4 Roger Rosengarten
A reach for Roger Rosengarten in the 136th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
Fair-plus on Jha'Quan Jackson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick229 Rnd7 KT Leveston
No edge and no loss on KT Leveston in the 229th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
