Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesB FutureB+
A passer of the future in McCarthy, and a B, for the Patriots.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Patriots spent the 231st overall pick on Devin Leary, a name the board had a full 76 spots lower.

Everything downstream of J.J. McCarthy depends on J.J. McCarthy, and the building knows it. Landing Dixon that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

A whole weekend of picks and safety is somehow still a want. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but safety.

Pick Analysis
Pick25 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In pick 25 they get the arm they will build around. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan in the 34th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick38 Rnd2 Darius Robinson
A market-rate edge rusher, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Darius Robinson. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick49 Rnd2 Roman Wilson
Roman Wilson at pick No. 49 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick58 Rnd2 Kingsley Suamataia
Kingsley Suamataia at Round 2, Pick 26 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick68 Rnd3 Xavier Legette
Xavier Legette in No. 68 is fair value, right on his grade. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick80 Rnd3 Dominick Puni
A reach on Dominick Puni in pick 80; the board had better options right there. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick83 Rnd3 Brenden Rice
Brenden Rice at the 83rd pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick106 Rnd4 Mekhi Wingo
No edge and no loss on Mekhi Wingo in Round 4, Pick 6; it is a wash and a sensible one. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick137 Rnd5 Justin Eboigbe
Justin Eboigbe in slot 137 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick153 Rnd5 Kalen King
A tidy bit of business in the 153rd overall pick, where Kalen King graded well above the range. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick180 Rnd6 Trente Jones
Trente Jones at pick No. 180 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick193 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
They talked themselves into Frank Gore Jr. at No. 193, and the board did not agree. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick213 Rnd6 Johnny Dixon
Somehow Johnny Dixon was still sitting there in the Round 6 slot, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick219 Rnd6 Steele Chambers
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Steele Chambers in pick No. 219, plain and simple. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jalen Coker
Jalen Coker at slot 227 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick231 Rnd7 Devin Leary
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Devin Leary. It fills a real need, too.
