My updated Pats board.
Day 1:
These 20 guys are players I consider worth taking at 31 without reaching, and who would immediately improve the team. I would take them in the order listed. Many will be long gone, but it's not inconceivable there will be 11 players taken not on this list ahead of 31. I do not include positions not likely to be picked (QB, RB), players I don't consider great schematic fits (Vega Ioane, Emmanuel McNeil-Warren), or players whose schematic fit is redundant with what we already have (Makai Lemon, KC Concepcion, Omar Cooper).
The first 13 are all OL or DL/EDGE, except for Sonny Styles.
1. Arvell Reese, LB/EDGE, Ohio St.
2. David Bailey, EDGE, Texas Tech
3. Monroe Freeling, OT, Georgia
4. Caleb Banks, DT, Florida
5. Sonny Styles, LB, Ohio St.
6. Francis Mauigoa, OL, Miami
7. Max Iheanachor, OT, Arizona St.
8. Caleb Lomu, OT, Utah
9. Blake Miller, OT, Clemson
10. Keldric Faulk, EDGE, Auburn
11. Rueben Bain, EDGE, Miami
12. Akheem Mesidor, EDGE, Miami
13. Spencer Fano, OL, Utah
14. Dillon Thieneman, S, Oregon
15. Caleb Downs, S, Ohio St.
16. Jermod McCoy, CB, Tennessee
17. Jordyn Tyson, WR, Arizona St.
18. Kenyon Sadiq, TE, Oregon
19. Mansoor Delane, CB LSU
20. Carnell Tate, WR, Ohio St.
Early-Mid Day 2:
These 25 players are all very good players, but would not be my preference at 31. I would love to get any of them in the second round, including with a trade back from 31 if none of the 20 players in the first group slips.
21. Dani Dennis-Sutton, EDGE, Penn St.
22. Treydan Stukes, S/nickel, Arizona
23. TJ Parker, EDGE, Clemson
24. Peter Woods, DT, Clemson

29. Lee Hunter, DT, Texas Tech
30. Malachi Lawrence, EDGE, UCF
31. Gabe Jacas, EDGE, Illinois
32. Zion Young, EDGE, Missouri
33. Kayden McDonald, DT, Ohio St.
34. CJ Allen, LB, Georgia
35. Avieon Terrell, Nickel, Clemson
36. Keionte Scott, Nickel/S, Miami
37. Mike Washington, RB, Arkansas
38. Eli Stowers, TE, Vanderbilt

45. D'Angelo Ponds, Nickel, Indiana
Late Day 2/Early Day 3:
These 30 prospects are all players I would be happy getting in the 3rd and 4th rounds. The top ones are late 2nd/early 3rd fallback options.
