Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Patriots did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

Nobody had Jordan Travis this high, and it is not close. The Patriots reached 30 spots to get him at the 142nd overall pick.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Wilson pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Malik Nabers
In Round 1, Pick 3 they get a go-to option on the outside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick34 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
A clean, defensible pick in the 34th overall pick with a little surplus value in Tyler Guyton. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick79 Rnd3 Patrick Paul
The board had Patrick Paul higher than slot 79, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick104 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Khyree Jackson at pick No. 104 is the proof. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick121 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
A premium they did not need to pay, Mohamed Kamara a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick136 Rnd4 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson at No. 136 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick137 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
No drama and no debate, Roger Rosengarten went about where he belonged in pick 137. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick142 Rnd5 Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis at Round 5, Pick 6 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at slot 166 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
