New England Patriots:

Mitchell is an ascending prospect with the size, length, speed, and athleticism to threaten all three levels (short, intermediate, and long) on the football field. At 6’2, 205, he ran a 4.34 in the 40

Out in Washington, just like in New England, they’re trying to poke holes into Jayden Daniels’ game as the Commanders have seemingly shown the most interest in the LSU quarterback.

Nothing is ever off the table. The Patriots at #3 will get either Daniels or Maye, but in essence, neither is a consolation prize.

In his Pro Day outing, Drake Maye, settled down and made some long throws that easily went 40-50+ yards with ease. 

Asking to fill all three (QB,T, WR) via the draft puts too much pressure on the board, They have to fill at least one via free agency. 

The only way I wouldn’t stand pat at #3 is because I’d have serious concerns about either Maye or Daniels being “the guy”

Henry has been a reliable and productive red-zone target for the Patriots, scoring nine TDs in 2021 and six in 2023.

Out in Minnesota, the Vikings are in the middle of what’s likely going to be a pivotal offseason.

While the New England Patriots are obviously trying to figure things out at the tackle position heading into free agency and the draft, it’s entirely possible they may actually already have at least one potential solution in-house.

Sitting with the number three overall pick has the Patriots in a position to select much of the top-end quarterback talent heading into April’s draft, but any thoughts of moving back could certainly have a massive ripple effect.

“You don’t want to game plan for me. You want to game plan with me,” Drake Maye said at the NFL Combine this week.

The first press conference for Patriots Director of Scouting Eliot Wolf was held on Tuesday down in Indianapolis as Wolf addressed a variety of topics, with the plans at quarterback obviously being a key talking point.

“Matthew Slater deserves every accolade someone could receive. He added that Slater was the “best core special teams player in NFL history.”

Maye has a prototypical build for a QB at 6’4, 229, possesses a cannon for an arm, and has above-average athleticism, 9 rushing TDs in 2023.

Unless you’d been in that building, you have no idea. And you’ve never been in the building. So you guys are killing him,” Mike Lombardi said
