Patriots’ 2022 NFL Draft Picks: Who New England Took Each Round

The Patriots took a big step forward in their second year after Tom Brady’s departure, with rookie quarterback Mac Jones taking over as the team’s starter in his first NFL season. New England went 10–7, but lost big to the division rival Bills in the wild-card round of the playoffs.

Now, Bill Belichick and the front office looks to surround Jones with some more talent through the 2022 NFL draft, after focusing on free agency a year ago.

The team made one fairly big move to the pre-draft front in the offseason, trading within the AFC East to acquire wide receiver DeVante Parker from the Dolphins. The team entered Thursday’s draft with nine picks that included a selection at No. 21. 

However, Kansas City made a trade with New England. The Chiefs secured the Patriots’ No. 21 pick. In return, New England received the No. 29, No. 94 and No. 121 picks

Here is how the Patriots’ draft has turned out thus far (to be updated during NFL draft):

• Round 1, Pick 29 (from 49ers via Dolphins and Chiefs): Cole Strange, G, Chattanooga
• Round 2, Pick 50 (from Dolphins via Chiefs): Tyquan Thornton, WR, Baylor
• Round 3, Pick 85: Marcus Jones, CB, Houston
• Round 4, Pick 121 (from Dolphins via Chiefs): Jack Jones, CB, Arizona State
• Round 4, Pick 127: Pierre Strong Jr., RB, South Dakota State
• Round 4, Pick 137 (from Rams via Texans and Panthers): Bailey Zappe, QB, Western Kentucky
• Round 6, Pick 183 (from Texans): Kevin Harris, RB, South Carolina

• Round 6, Pick 210 (from Rams): Chasen Hines, OL, LSU
