Here are the 10 players who will be heading to New England.
The Patriots used their final allotted draft pick on offensive tackle Andrew Stueber at pick No. 245 overall.
The Patriots' first pick this year was on the interior of the offensive line. They made another selection in that area with pick No. 210, drafting Chasen Hines out of LSU.
The Patriots waited until pick No. 200 of the draft to add to their front seven, and they did it with Sam Roberts out of Northwest Missouri.
The Patriots drafted a running back in the fourth round, and they added another in the sixth round: Kevin Harris out of the University of South Carolina.
The Patriots spent their third selection of the fourth round on quarterback Bailey Zappe out of Western Kentucky.

Using a pick they acquired from the Kansas City Chiefs a night earlier, the Patriots spun that extra pick for two more.

The Patriots didn't wait around until their spot at 54th overall in the second round, instead trading up to select wide receiver Tyquan Thornton at No. 50 overall.
To say it was an interesting night for the Patriots would be an understatement, as the night was a curveball, even by Belichick's own standards.
