We all know Bill Belichick’s track record when it comes to drafting wide receivers. We do not need to revisit that. Jaylen Waddke however could change that narrative if he dropped to the Patriots at 15 and they drafted him. Waddle is arguably the most explosive playmaker in this class. That’s saying a lot considering teammate Devonta Smith and Florida’s Kadarius Toney are in this draft among others. Of course……

Patriots Draft: Player Profile: Jayson Oweh, OLB, Penn State
The Patriots beefed up their pass rush in free agency signing free agents Matthew Judon and Kyle Van Noy but other than those two and Chase Winovich, they still lack that elite level pass rusher who can contribute in sub packages.

Patriots Draft: Player Profile: Justin Fields, QB, Ohio State
I wasn’t originally going to do a scouting report on Fields because I didn’t think the Patriots were going to be in position to draft him. Well, that is still the case but Josh McDaniels and Dave Ziegler did attend his second workout today and their is growing speculation that New England is strongly entertaining a move up. Who knows if that is true or not but the Patriots do……

Patriots Draft: The Patriots attending Justin Fields second pro day reinforces that they are interested in him at the right cost
Much has been made today about the Patriots attending Justin Fields second pro day. The Patriots also attended Fields first pro day two weeks ago by sending front office executive Elliot Wolf and a scout to the workout. Offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels and Director of Player Personnel Dave Ziegler were expected to attend today’s workout. The team attending today’s workout is obviously a sign that they are interested in Fields……
