Jennings was the most mocked player in any of my daily Patriots mock drafts. He is a tremendous scheme fit. He is a defensive end/outside linebacker with size and bulk. At 6-2 256, Jennings is built as an on line outside linebacker but he can also play as a stack linebacker in certain fronts. Here is my scouting report on Jennings. Vs. Inside Run: Jennings is strong at the point……

The Patriots traded back into the bottom of the second round to draft Michigan outside linebacker/defensive end Josh Uche. Uche is an explosive pass rusher who can play on the line or as a stack linebacker. Here is my linebacker scouting report on Uche. Vs. Inside Run: Uche hasn’t played a lot of stack linebacker in his career so he doesn’t have a lot of experience taking on second level……

For the sixth in the twenty year tenure of Bill Belichick, the Patriots did not make a first round selection. Instead, they traded the 23rd overall pick in this year’s draft to the Los Angeles Chargers for the 37th pick in the second round and the 71st pick in the third round. Obviously the Patriots felt comfortable making this trade because the players that they had stacked on the top……

Round 1: Pick #23: Kenneth Murray, OLB, Oklahoma: The Patriots will try to move up if they can. If not, they will stand pat and take the best defensive player available.

By Kevin Stone/@kstone06 This may seem like hyperbole but it’s not…this draft could be the most significant draft in Patriots history. The NFL Draft begins tonight and as of now the Patriots have the 23rd pick in the draft. Whether they go quarterback, linebacker, defensive tackle or tight end remains to be seen, but the weekend as a whole is what really matters. For the first time since 1993, the……
The Patriots need to address the defensive tackle position after losing Danny Shelton in free agency. Bill Belichick likes stout defensive tackles that can not only play in a shade alignment but head up as well. This year’s draft has a good blend of defensive tackles that can play in a variety of schemes. Here is what I look for in defensive tackles Vs. Run Pass Rush Pursuit Tackling Quickness……
