Tom E. Curran of NBC Sports broke down games played and snap percentages for each of the Patriots draft picks since 2019. Only 2 of the 28 players drafted have played more than 75% of the snaps (Mac Jones and Michael Onwenu). Just 12 of the 28 have participated in more than 50% of the games played since they were drafted and only 5 of them have been on the field for more than 50% of the snaps in the games they played. 8 of the 28 players never appeared in a game. Makes you wonder if the Patriots know what they want?
