Seven picks after the Patriots selected Elandon Roberts, they drafted Ted Karras, an offensive lineman out of Illinois. Love going back and forth on everything Patriots. Can’t imagine the team is completely sold on the current group of backs, so why not add more depth. The 2016 NFL Draft was both a unique and memorable event for the New England Patriots, albeit for the wrong reasons.

Bill Belichick has done a terrific job, for the most part, doubling as his team’s head coach and as its GM, with only one major exception during his nearly two-decade-long tenure. Aaron Dobson, Chad Jackson, Malcolm Mitchell… these are just a few of the more recent, high-profile outside wide receivers Belichick has struck out on. He’s now a published author of a kid’s book titled “The Magician’s Hat,” a story about a magician named David who promotes the power of reading. They moved on from Jamie Collins in 2016, dealing the linebacker for a mid-round draft pick. Another deal would be calling up Kansas City and prying one of their running backs away.

If he’s available at pick 60 or 61, I’d love the Patriots to take him.

But if they do trade up for a player this year, my expectations will be extremely high for him since they’ll be giving up a LOT of capital to get him. Roll tide, ROLL! Joe Thuney, Ted Karras, and Elandon Roberts were “keepers” from this particular draft; Cyrus Jones, Kamu Grugier-Hill, and Vincent Valentine stand out as clear misfires.

86. By October of 2018, Valentine had been released from the team. Without further ado, let’s get to it. I had Joe Cardona on my Patriots big board last year more as a joke than anything, but sure enough the Navy connection came through.

Calls himself a "no-sleeve" guy. In a dream world, New England would have taken West Alabama’s Tyreek Hill with this pick, who went to the Chiefs 53 slots later. FOXBOROUGH, MA - DECEMBER 12: Patriots' Malcolm Mitchell dances at the end zone after his touchdown.

While Cooper didn’t pan out, the Patriots’ trade with the Chicago Bears for Martellus Bennett most certainly did, as Bennett filled in for an injured Rob Gronkowski and had a terrific season serving as the primary tight end that year. While I have not been as committed to researching this draft (thanks, grad school and having to write my master’s thesis) I do have some final thoughts and opinions before we get underway later this week in Chicago. While it certainly didn’t help that their first-round draft pick was forfeited due to Deflategate, they still could have made better choices almost across the board while trying to plug holes at defensive tackle, wide receiver, and linebacker.

If the Patriots could have this pick back, they should have used it on Robby Anderson, who went undrafted in 2016 before signing with the New York Jets, a team he currently starts for at receiver. The Hawaiian linebacker played for Eastern Illinois University before finding his way to New England.

( Log Out /  Mitchell actually had a solid rookie season for the team, racking up 401 receiving yards and four touchdowns. Of those three, only one is a gameday starter – and that’s Thuney. But, if there’s a player there that Bill wants, then go for it.

This is my only 2016 Patriots mock draft and I’ve put a lot of time into considering each prospect, especially with the top four picks. As always, I think the phones will be put through a workout in the Patriots war room.

He also baked treats for his offensive lineman, a tradition his new teammates would probably like to see follow him to New England. Nick Saban’s favorite player on the Crimson Tide last season, Jones is a promising corner who could replace Logan Ryan if he leaves via free agency after next season. Ideally, the Patriots would have selected Mississippi State quarterback Dak Prescott with this pick, who went 44 picks later. 204 overall and No. Here’s a quick look at the Patriots’ picks and trades from the 2016 NFL Draft: Second round, 60th overall: CB Cyrus Jones, Alabama.

That being said, I’m a huge fan of Derrick Henry. He was released from the active roster as a rookie and signed to the team’s practice squad, where he lasted for a year before getting waived in September of 2017.

3 years ago. He’ll be a project pick and insurance on the depth chart when (if?) The 2016 draft class could arguably go down as one of the best draft classes in Belichick’s tenure with the Patriots.

Knee injuries ultimately cost Mitchell his career with the Patriots, though he’s since found success as a children’s book writer.
