N’Keal Harry drafted by the Patriots with their first-round pick

The New England Patriots selected Arizona State wide receiver N’Keal Harry with the final pick of the first round in the 2019 NFL Draft.

Harry was projected to go right around the turn of the first round into the second, so his selection at No. 32 seems about right. He also goes to a team where he will have an immediate chance at making an impact as a starter – the Patriots lost 2018 starting receivers Chris Hogan and Cordarrelle Patterson in free agency.

With a depth chart lacking significant weapons beyond Super Bowl 53 MVP Julian Edelman, New England was expected to consider a wide receiver early in this draft.
