The Patriots now have signed four of their 12 picks from the 2023 NFL Draft.
New England on Wednesday agreed to terms with sixth-round picks Demario Douglas and Bryce Baringer, according to multiple reports. Doug Kyed of A to Z Sports offered details on the four-year contracts for both players.
The Patriots previously reached agreements with fifth-round guard Atonio Mafi and sixth-round receiver Kayshon Boutte.
Baringer, a punter out of Michigan State, was the consensus top punter available in the draft and will be given an opportunity to replace Jake Bailey, who was released this offseason before signing with the Miami Dolphins. As for Douglas, the speedy, diminutive receiver out of Liberty has the potential to fill a needed jitterbug-like role in New England's offense.
The Patriots still haven't announced contract details for their three undrafted free agent signings.
