Draft Grade — Patriots
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Patriots a B+.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Carson Steele at the 234th overall pick, a reach of 92 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Rome Odunze
In slot 11 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick23 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In pick 23 they get a cornerstone up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick34 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
No edge and no loss on Jordan Morgan in No. 34; it is a wash and a sensible one. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick103 Rnd4 Khyree Jackson
A quiet steal in the 103rd overall pick: Khyree Jackson for less than the market said. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick167 Rnd5 Tykee Smith
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tykee Smith in the 167th pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180 Rnd6 Tip Reiman
A straight-up fair deal on Tip Reiman at pick No. 180, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick193 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
Jordan Jefferson at pick 193 is money in the bank, a interior defensive lineman taken below his worth. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick231 Rnd7 Sam Hartman
They talked themselves into Sam Hartman at No. 231, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick234 Rnd7 Carson Steele
A real head-scratcher, Carson Steele in the Round 7 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
