Welcome to the 2021 NFL draft! The first round of the league’s college player selection meeting has arrived and it projects to be a highly interesting one from the New England Patriots’ perspective: Owning the 15th overall selection, they are seen as prime candidates to make a big move up the board — or bolster their roster in some other fashion.
Here at Pats Pulpit we will have plenty of coverage for you over the next three days, so make sure to regularly check back for all the latest news, rumors and analysis. As for the first day of the event, here is all you need to know about how to watch it.

The 15th overall selection is scheduled to be made between 10:20 p.m. ET and 10:30 p.m. ET at the latest. Realistically, however, it will happen earlier given that not all teams will wait until the end of their 10-minute window to announce their selection. Based on years past, you should expect New England’s pick to be made at around 9:20 p.m. ET.
