Perhaps the Patriots didn't see anyone they liked on the board, but this trade doesn't seem like great value for the team. According to the draft trade value chart, if that still means anything, the Patriots were on the wrong side of this trade by 23.8 points. The trade does set up the team with three fourth round picks, three sixth round picks, and a seventh round pick tomorrow.
