Patriots land two defensive difference-makers in ESPN 2025 mock draft

ESPN’s Matt Miller put together a two-round 2025 NFL mock draft on Monday, and he had the New England Patriots go defense with both of their draft selections.

The team selected Michigan defensive tackle Mason Graham with the fourth overall pick in the first round and Ohio State edge defender Jack Sawyer in the second round with the 38th overall selection.

Graham was a stalwart defender for Michigan throughout his time in Ann Arbor. He was a unanimous All-American in 2024 and a two-time first-team All-Big Ten selection in 2023 and 2024.
