The Patriots have one of the most successful franchises over the last two decades, which have come from great drafts finding elite talent in nearly every round of the draft. Just look at the best player they took in each round of the NFL draft since Bill Belichick took over in 2000.

Round 1: Richard Seymour DL (2001)/Vince Wilfork DT (2004)

Round 2: Matt Light OT (2001)/Rob Gronkowski (2009)

Round 3: Stevan Ridley RB (2011)

Round 4: Asante Samuel CB (2003)

Round 5: Dan Koppen C (2003)

Round 6: Tom Brady QB (2000)

Round 7: Julian Edelmelman (2009)
