The 2018 NFL Draft is in the books, so naturally, it’s time to look ahead to the 2019 draft.
We’re kidding, of course. But the New England Patriots will have a wealth of options when they go on the clock next summer, by virtue of all the wheeling and dealing Bill Belichick and Co. did this weekend in Arlington, Texas.
Here’s a list of all the Patriots’ 2019 draft picks, via ESPN’s Mike Reiss:

The Patriots had an interesting 2018 NFL Draft, as they naturally did the opposite of what everyone projected. Needing some help in the front seven, especially at linebacker, the Patriots took offensive lineman Isaiah Wynn and running back Sony Michel in the first round.
New England elected to wait until the fifth round to draft a linebacker and didn’t select a quarterback until the seventh round when they took LSU QB Danny Etling.
