NextImg:Patriots close out draft by selecting ‘super athletic’ tight end Jaheim Bell

The Patriots used their final selection in the 2024 NFL Draft to select Florida State tight end Jaheim Bell with the 231st pick.

Bell, 22, caught 39 passes for 503 yards with two touchdowns last season. He transferred from South Carolina after the 2022 season and caught 95 passes for 1,260 yards with seven touchdowns over the course of his four-year college career.

The 6-foot-2, 241-pound pass catcher ran a 4.61-second 40-yard dash at the NFL Scouting Combine with a 35-inch vertical leap and 10-foot, 4-inch broad jump.

One scout said Bell is a “super athletic H-back type.” The expectation is that he can be used as a special teams contributor while he develops as a route runner.

Bell has experience in the slot, inline, out wide and even out of the backfield. He had three rushing touchdowns in 2022.

Of the Patriots’ eight draft picks, seven were used on offensive players, and three were pass-catchers. The Patriots also selected two quarterbacks and two offensive linemen.
