Patriots: Mack Wilson is a Wild Card for the Patriots Defense

May 6, 2022

The Patriots went against what many thought they would do on Draft Weekend and did not select a single linebacker in the NFL Draft. Despite it being a deep linebacker class, New England chose to address other areas of the roster. That says a lot about how they feel about their current linebacker depth chart. Though unproven, the Patriots are high on Cameron McGrone and are expecting a career resurgence…

Patriots: Patriots do not pick up N’Keal Harry’s fifth year option

May 4, 2022

In a decision that surprises no one, the Patriots have opted not to pick up N’Keal Harry’s fifth year option. That means Harry will be a free agent after next season. Harry’s first three years in a Patriots uniform have been a disaster. Harry has caught just 57 passes for 598 yards and four touchdowns during that span. His best season was 2020 when he caught 33 passes for 309…

Patriots Draft: The Patriots drafted Bailey Zappe to be more than a developmental quarterback

May 2, 2022

The Patriots turned heads on Saturday when they drafted quarterback Bailey Zappe in the fourth round. Why draft a quarterback when you have Mac Jones and Jarrett Stidham? Simple. They see Zappe as more than a developmental quarterback. Now before you start thinking that I am implying that Mac’s job is on the line, it is not. He is the starting quarterback of the Patriots. Now and in the future…….

Patriots Draft: Scouting Report on OT Andrew Stueber

May 1, 2022

The Patriots drafted Darien, Connecticut native Andrew Stueber with their last pick in the seventh round (Pick 245). At 6-6 325, Stueber was a tackle at Michigan but could kick inside and play guard in the NFL. Stueber made 22 career starts at Michigan and he played in 34 games. He’s got a lot of good football left in him. Here is my scouting report on Andrew Stueber. Andrew Stueber,……

Patriots Draft: Scouting Report on OG Chasen Hines

May 1, 2022

The Patriots drafted guard Chasen Hines with Pick 210 in the sixth round. On paper, Hines reminds me of Michael Onwenu who the Patriots took in the sixth round two years ago out of Michigan. Hines is 6-3 350. He needs to drop a few pounds. If he does, he can be good with his athleticism. Onwenu has turned out to be very good for the Patriots and they are……

Patriots Draft: Scouting Report on QB Bailey Zappe

April 30, 2022

The Patriots surprised the NFL world by drafting Western Kentucky quarterback Bailey Zappe with the 137th pick of the fourth round. At 6-0 218, Zappe is undersized but athletic. He ran 4.88 forty at the combine. He does a lot of things that Bill Belichick likes. He takes care of the ball, he’s accurate and he plays smart. He also throws a very catchable ball which makes him easy to……

Patriots Draft: Scouting Report on RB Pierre Strong Jr.

April 30, 2022

The Patriots used their second fourth round pick (Pick 127) on South Dakota State Pierre Strong Jr. Strong is 5-11 205. He was a four year starter finishing his career with 4,527 yards and 40 touchdowns. Big time production for a back that was a two-star recruit coming of high school. When you look at Strong physically, he is a long, lean running back who is a long strider and……
