So wasn\u2019t TE Kyle Pitts Florida and CB Jaycee Horn South Carolina.\u00a0 As you can imagine I was receiving some strong trade offers.\u00a0 I ultimately went with the NYJ offer of 23 and 34.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#23 Jaycee Horn CB South Carolina<\/strong> <strong>(1)<\/strong> \u2013 Horn is the 2<sup>nd<\/sup> best corner in the draft. This allows for a trade of Stephon Gilmore (First-Pick doesn\u2019t allow trades of personnel).\u00a0 A player of Horn\u2019s caliber should be able to start right away.\u00a0 If nothing else it helps the team for 2022 by straightening out the CB position mess.\u00a0 Horn was one of only 12 players to receive 1<sup>st<\/sup> round grades by BGC.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#34 TRADE<\/strong> Another pick with high interest. This time I went for Philly\u2019s offer of 37 and 84.\u00a0 I drop three spots and pick up a mid 3<sup>rd<\/sup>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#37 Zaven Collins LB Tulsa (2)<\/strong> \u2013 6\u20194.7, 259lbs, 35\u201d Vert. Another highly thought of prospect.\u00a0 Some have him going in the 1<sup>st<\/sup> round (Patriots).\u00a0\u00a0 With Hightower getting up there in age, securing his replacement was wise.\u00a0 Another look towards 2022.\u00a0 Reports from the Combine weigh-ins had him at 270lbs (11 more after his Pro Day weight).\u00a0 That\u2019s Willie McGinest&#8217;s size.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#46 Elijah Moore WR Mississippi (2)<\/strong> &#8211; 5\u20199\u201d, 184 lbs, 4.35 40, 36\u201d Vert. Don\u2019t let his small stature fool you.\u00a0 He is fearless going across the middle.\u00a0 Of 200 catchable passes thrown to him, he only dropped 10.\u00a0 This is the Julian Edelman replacement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#84 Quinn Meinerz OG\/OC Wisconsin \u2013 Whitewater (D III) (2) <\/strong>\u2013 6\u20193\u201d, 320lbs Every one of his Pro Day measurements was Top Ten all-time for the combine. If you have been following my Mock Drafts then you have read my assessment of Meinerz.\u00a0 He is my draft binky.\u00a0 I think he has a bright future in the NFL.\u00a0 Despite coming from a lower level of competition, then having the 2020 season canceled because of COVID, he proved himself at the Senior Bowl.\u00a0 He was selected OL Practice player of the week by his peers, the D lineman he crushed all week.\u00a0 He taught himself the shotgun snap and had never played OC before the Senior Bowl.\u00a0 He is an LG by trade.\u00a0 I would have him at LG, Owenu at RT, and Brown at LT.\u00a0 Wynn will not have his 5th-year\u00a0option exercised, thus making him trade bait.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#96 Davis Mills QB Stanford (2)<\/strong> \u2013 6\u20194\u201d, 212 lbs, 4.66 40, 6.98 3-cone. Mills has only played 13 games over 2 seasons but has impressive numbers that fall in line with the Patriots Draft Standard for the QB position. According to Mike Lombardi former Patriots executive consultant, the QB must be smart (wonderlic) and Mills went to Stanford.\u00a0 Must meet height (6\u20192.5\u201d), weight (207 lbs) requirements, and plays at a high level of competition. He must throw at a high completion percentage of at least 60% and a high TD to low INT ratio (2019 66.2%, 7\/3 and 2020 65.6%, 11\/5).\u00a0 Mills checks every box except a large sample size.\u00a0 He also has had four knee surgeries to his left knee, but none since 2018.\u00a0 He first injured his knee in the state championship HS game.<\/p>\n<p>Note:\u00a0 First-Pick simulator did not have the Patriots with Draft picks 120 and 122.\u00a0 When it came time for those picks, I just made my own selections from players available.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#120 Bobby Brown III DT Texas A&amp;M<\/strong> <strong>(2) <\/strong>\u2013 6\u20193.2\u201d, 325 lbs, 5.22 40. Brown has been described as a Brick House.\u00a0 He is a Nose Tackle that occupies space, exactly what they need.\u00a0 Davon Godchaux was signed as a Free Agent.\u00a0 The backup spot is up for grabs.\u00a0 Montavious Adams and Carl Davis are signed for one year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#122 Dwayne Eskeridge WR Western Michigan (3)<\/strong> \u2013 5\u20198.2\u201d, 190 lbs, 4.38 40, 6.95 3-cone, 35\u201d Vert Eskeridge put on a show at the Senior Bowl. His Pro Day was more the same.\u00a0 Eskeridge started as a CB and moved to WR.\u00a0 He also returns kicks and led the nation with 213 all-purpose yards per game.\u00a0 He has limited experience at route running, but can\u2019t be stopped at the LOS with press coverage.\u00a0 He is strictly a Wide receiver.\u00a0 History of injuries.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#139 Divine Deablo S Virginia Tech<\/strong> <strong>(4) <\/strong>&#8211; 6\u2019 3.2\u201d, 226 lbs, 4.45 40, 7.01 3-cone. Deablo is another of those Strong Safeties that plays like an LB.\u00a0 Given that Nickel defenses are becoming the norm rather than the exception, Deablo fits that hybrid role.\u00a0 His ideal role will be that of a Dime Linebacker and Special Teams player.\u00a0 He has three years&#8217; experience.\u00a0 He was originally a Wide Receiver as a Freshman then converted to Safety.<\/p>\n<p>Note: At this point in the draft BB is likely to sell off some draft picks for picks next year.\u00a0 I look at it a little differently.\u00a0 I am taking players that you might get as Un Drafted Free Agents (UDFAs).\u00a0 By doing this, you are getting those players you targeted s priority UDFAs, without having to compete with other teams for them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#177 Elijah Mitchell RB Louisiana (4) &#8211; <\/strong>5\u2019 10.2\u201d, 201 lbs, 4.35 40, 6.94 3-cone, 37 \u00bd Vert. Mitchell is an accomplished runner who had 1147 yards in 2019.\u00a0 In 20 he shared carries which lowered his numbers,\u00a0 he can catch as well with 20 receptions in 2019 for 349 yards (17.5 avg) and 3 TDs.\u00a0 He has the moves and is very slippery.\u00a0 Compares nicely to James White who is signed to a one-year contract.\u00a0 Sony Michel will probably not have his 5th-year\u00a0option exercised.\u00a0 Another look towards 2022.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#188 Ben Mason FB Michigan (5)<\/strong> \u2013 6\u2019 2.6\u201d, 246 lbs, 4.77 40, 6.89 3-cone, 371\/2 vert, 29 reps @ 225 lbs. Mason obliterated players during the Senior Bowl practices. We are talking James Devlin-type blocks.\u00a0 Mason played some Defensive End for Don Brown at Michigan.\u00a0 He was originally recruited as an LB.\u00a0 If you compare his measurable numbers against the other ILBs, he is third behind Parsons and Collins.\u00a0 He will be an integral part of all 4 Special Teams.\u00a0 Mason is a player that has Patriots written all over him and a player I have listed on several mock drafts.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#197 Avery Williams CB Boise State (UDFA)<\/strong> &#8211; 5\u20198.3\u201d, 4.43 40. 6.88 3-cone.\u00a0 Williams will be a career Special Teams player.\u00a0 He has 9 TDs in Kick-Off and Punt Returns.\u00a0 Blocking Field Goals is another specialty with 5 for his career.\u00a0 Williams has 30 games of experience under his belt but projects strictly as a Slot Corner.\u00a0 He will be a replacement for Matthew Slater as he comes to the end of his career.<\/p>\n<p><strong>#242 Cam Sample Edge Tulane (2) <\/strong>\u2013 6\u2019 2.7\u201d, 267 lbs, 4.79 40, 37\u201d Vert. Sample had a great week at the Senior Bowl, capping it off with being named defensive MVP for the game. He is strong at the point of attack and would be better off as a stand-up OLB in a 3-4. He can be used as a DT is pass-rush situations.\u00a0 He has a great bull rush and counter moves.\u00a0 Something has to give here!\u00a0 BGC has him as a 2<sup>nd<\/sup> round prospect and First-Pick has him as a 7<sup>th<\/sup> rounder.\u00a0\u00a0 I actually think he is a 4<sup>th<\/sup> round selection and shouldn\u2019t be here for The Patriots to pick.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Draft Week

My earliest memories of the Patriots were attending as a child with my dad, the off-season practice at Phillips Academy. I was at the Patriots game at Harvard Stadium in 1970 where Bob \u201cHarpo\u201d Gladieux was called out of the stands by the stadium announcer over the PA to play in the game.
