FOXBOROUGH — The Patriots briefly had the 147th overall pick in the NFL Draft, sending a pair of sixth-round picks (Nos. 196 and 204) and a seventh-round selection (No. 250) to Miami for the eighth slot in the fifth round.

Roughly an hour later, that 147th pick was gone, dealt to Seattle, along with a seventh-round pick at No. 243. In return, the Patriots received a seventh-round pick and — much more importantly — a fourth-rounder in the 2017 draft from the Seahawks.

Patriots fans might have been a little surprised to see the former player making the televised announcement for Seattle’s 147th pick, wearing a Seahawks T-shirt. It was Lawyer Milloy, who played for the Patriots from 1996-2002. Milloy’s final two seasons (2009-10) were spent with the Seahawks, and he also played his college ball at the University of Washington.

Bill Belichick noticed.

“Lawyer Milloy turned in the Seahawks pick? Come on,’’ Belichick joked. “That’s all good. It’s all good. It’s good to see those guys.’’

Belichick also noticed Kevin Faulk wearing a Tom Brady jersey on Friday night, when the former Patriots running back announced one of the team’s third-round picks.

“Love Kevin. He always makes good decisions,’’ Belichick said. “He looked sharp out there.’’

Left high and dry

Belichick’s fondness for the Naval Academy is well documented, and has occasionally carried over into the draft. The Patriots were the only team to draft a player from Navy last year, using a fifth-round pick on long snapper Joe Cardona.

Before the Patriots could select a Navy man this year — and there were more than a few who envisioned Keenan Reynolds being drafted by Belichick and heading to Foxborough — one of the Patriots’ rivals beat them to the Midshipmen quarterback. The Ravens took Reynolds with the 182d pick, early in the sixth round.

Local knowledge

Malcolm Mitchell, the Georgia wide receiver taken by the Patriots in the fourth round, has visited this area before. He spent part of 2015 serving an internship with the Markley Group, located on Summer Street in Boston.

“I loved it. I came in May where the weather wasn’t as cold as it normally is,’’ Mitchell said. “It was a telecommunications company, so I was learning a lot about that.’’

Remembering Brace

Belichick grew somber remembering Ron Brace, a former Patriots defensive lineman who died last week at the age of 29.

“Very sad to hear that. He was a young man that died early, so that’s always tragic,’’ Belichick said. “The fact that he was in our lives, part of our family, gives us a heavier heart. Our thoughts and prayers and sympathy go out to his family. It was sad news.’’
