Grading Patriots drafting South Dakota RB Pierre Strong in Round 4

The New England Patriots must have drafted South Dakota running Pierre Strong with an eye for 2023, because he is joining one of the deepest running back groups in the NFL in 2022 for his rookie season.

Strong will team up with Damien Harris, Rhamondre Stevenson, James White, Ty Montgomery and J.J. Taylor. And the rookie won’t have a clear path to the field, even after dominating at a lower level of competition in 2021 with 240 carries, 1,673 yards, 18 rushing touchdowns, 22 catches and 150 yards.
