Patriots 2021 Draft Class: Who's Poised For Breakout?

Christian Barmore and Rhamondre Stevenson helped carry the New England Patriots' 2021 draft class last season, but it was Mac Jones stealing all of the headlines.

Stevenson, the last player selected out of those three, is proving to be a gem. As a fourth-round draft choice out of Oklahoma, Stevenson racked up 606 yards on the ground with five rushing touchdowns. His ability to change pace with primary ball carrier Damien Harris created a bruising 1-2 combination, taking pressure off Jones and the passing game. When his name was called upon after Harris suffered an injury, he took well advantage of his opportunities.
