Patriots wrap up their draft class, signing Damien Harris

According to Chris Simms, one flaw about Bill Belichick has been his poor drafting of wide receivers. Can rookie first-rounder N'Keal Harry change that narrative?

The Patriots have wrapped up their draft class, signing running back Damien Harris on Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports. Harris gets a four-year, $3.6 million deal as the team’s third-round draft pick.

With Sony Michel missing the Patriots’ minicamp practice Tuesday, Harris saw more reps.

“I just came out here with the mindset to get better and improve; learn from my mistakes last week and the day before,” Harris said, via Ryan Hannable of WEEI. “So I just want to come out here and get better, work on things I need to improve on and continue to improve on the things that maybe I’m decent at, so that’s just my mindset coming out here to be the best player I can be.”

Harris shared the backfield at Alabama and likely will do the same in New England with Michel, James White and Rex Burkhead.
