Top 4 is different we have the Number 1 DL number 2 QB, number 1 WR, Number 1 OL and number 1 RB on the board.
Someone will want 4 question is will to be a deal to make the Patriots move.
This draft class has a clear weakness once you get past the Top 3.

The strength is in its depth.

I can't imagine anyone trading depth to get pick #4.

I could see the Bears trading 39 for Jeanty or Warren.
 
Graham is one of my favorite prospects, but we are looking pretty good there right now.

You lost me at “number 2 QB”.
 

J Dart is the QB l like most in this Draft...Boy throws a sweet ball. I will be shocked if he doesn't go in the First Round. J Milroe have nothing on him... Milroe should get Drafted on Day 3.

I don’t know how you can watch Dart and think that he is an NFL caliber quarterback. Comparing him to a quarterback who can’t pass the ball is setting the bar quite low.
 


Fun concept that The Ringer does every year. Needless to say, they aren’t enthusiastic about the quarterback crop this year, after Ward and Sanders.
 
Something not really discussed that much is our TE room. We're actually dangerously vulnerable there.
2 ~31 year olds, with our starter having a decent injury history - and due for one any week.

This draft has the closest "sure-thing" Gronk-like player at the top in Warren. He's a true "blue chip" play maker and franchise TE for 12 years. (I've also mentioned Jeanty as the other - but we don't need a RB like we need a TE)

There are plenty of low 1st / high 2nd round LT's to pick. And same for WR's, which are the biggest risk for the Patriots franchise.
Why not take the guaranteed difference maker now, before you absolutely need one and it's too late to develop?

Imagine Warren as the true TE, and Bell as the "move TE" - a return of the Gronk/Hernandez offense for JMD
I love Warren, and honestly wouldn’t be upset if they drafted him at #4. You watch the good QBs and most have good TE’s, some teams have 2 good pass catching TEs (Buffalo, Baltimore & Green Bay). As you mentioned, though both Henry & Hooper are good targets for Maye, but they are both getting older. Need a good young TE to develop, and Warren is probably the best 1st round weapon of the pass catchers available after Hunter.

Just recently I was watching Gronk, Kelce and Kittle highlights, and what a difference a talented TE makes for an offense. Add in McDaniels ran the greatest 2 TE offense of all time, and also it’s been obvious that Maye liked throwing to TEs. Henry and Hooper had a combined 111 catches and 1097 receiving yards and 5 receiving TDs. Imagine a TE in that offense who’s way more explosive than Henry or Hooper.

A special TE changes your offensive big time.

Those guys are really funny.
 
Obviously, Hunter & Will Johnson are special talents. However, Hairston & Notre Dame’s Benjamin Morrison (if he can recapture his pre-injury form) & ECU’s Shavon Revel also have the ability to become game breakers at the next level. Also, I love KSU’s Jacob Parrish in the slot; although he’s not too shabby on the outside.
