Usually I’m grading math worksheets, but since it’s draft season I thought I’ll be grading the New England Patriots’ draft class. Is grading a draft before any of the players have even stepped onto the practice field stupid? Probably.
However, you’re already here, and everyone else is doing it, so I’m not going to be the one not doing it. It’s going to be... Well, let’s just say the Patriots are not going to get the “A” they earned last year.
Day 1: Round 1
Patriots trade 1-21 to Kansas City for 1-29, 3-94, and 4-121: I thought this was a pretty solid trade for the Patriots to pick up extra third- and fourth-round picks while only moving down eight spots towards the end of the first round.
