We have a talented front office consultant where it seems to make sense to elevate him into at least what Nick Caserio was doing, if there is a concern that he's too young to be outright GM:
1. Eliot Wolf is the son of Ron Wolf, the legendary GM who built the Marcus Allen Raiders and then the Brett Favre Packers. Remember when we got Belichick who grew up around Steve Belichick's teachings? We have a guy who has a lot of lifelong knowledge about being a GM, scouting, and drafting in Wolf. Could be like a Belichick on the GM side.
2. Eliot Wolf joined Jan'20, and our 2020 draft is one of the best since 2012. Onwenu, Dugger, Uche and others, we have multiple guys who could become long term foundational players for the team. When Wolf was in Cleveland the 2 years prior they found major guys like Chubb, Williams, Mayfield, and Ward. Before that he was part of a long-winning Packers organization.
3. We had good drafts from 2009-12 when Reese and O'Brien were here. Then Crappy drafts from 2013-2019 with the John Carroll cabal of McDaniels back, Caserio, Ziegler giving bad opinions to Belichick and having Patriot scout opinions overridden by these bad talent evaluators. And now a good draft in 2020 where in a big coincidence the new add to the front office was Eliot Wolf.
I think the Patriots, assuming they were and are smart, knew Caserio might leave and brought in Wolf as insurance. Well it's time to make a play on this and keep Wolf long-term on the Patriots.
According to many NFL observers, one of the brightest future general managers resides in the Cleveland Browns front office. His name is Eliot Wolf.

Eliot Wolf is on the move again. After working with the Seahawks during the NFL Scouting Combine, the former Browns assistant GM has taken a job as a consultant with the Patriots.
