The New England Patriots made a total of 10 selections during the 2020 NFL draft and bolstered the depth of its roster at some key positions, but the immediate reaction to the haul was more up-and-down: the Patriots addressed some of their needs and also invested in some high-upside developmental players. But what does the Pats Pulpit staff, the readers, and the general consensus say about the additions? Glad you asked!
The Patriots entered the draft with a long list of needs, and did their best to address some of them: they completely overhauled their tight end depth chart of Day Two by investing third-round picks in Devin Asiasi and Dalton Keane, they bolstered their front seven with three selections — two of which, Josh Uche and Anfernee Jennings, being locks to make the 53-man roster this year — and they found their potential kicker of the future in Round Five.
