Barmore will remain with the team that selected him in the second round in 2021. The 24-year-old had a great season in 2024, registering 8.5 sacks, 13 tackles for loss, and one forced fumble in 17 games.

The New England Patriots have selected defensive tackle Christian Barmore with the No. 38 overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft.

Fantasy Impact

Barmore is a versatile defensive tackle who should be a seamless fit with the Patriots offensive scheme. The Patriots traded up to ensure they landed Barmore, a player many view as the top defensive tackle in the class. He ran a little hot and cold on tape, but he can be a game wrecker when he is on. An athletic pressure creator who wins with power, Barmore should immediately improve the Patriots defensive front.
