Here’s the full transcript from Jerod Mayo’s AFC Coaching Breakfast for Monday, March 25, 2024.

With nine days left before March comes to an end, Jerod Mayo and the Patriots still find themselves with some key needs ahead of next month’s NFL Draft.

Newcomer K.J. Osborn spoke to the media on Wednesday, talking about what it’s been like so far since the free agent Vikings receiver agreed to terms last week.

The decision to claim former CFL quarterback Nathan Rourke off of waivers back in December could be one of the final moves by Bill Belichick that could pay dividends.

Following up on the mention here yesterday about the difficulties young quarterbacks are dealing with, Rich Eisen also talked about it at length and made some strong points on Tuesday.

Bucky Brooks had an interesting take on Monday night, with Brooks pointing out something that some here in New England probably agree with.

While the Patriots have made some key re-signings and added a couple of depth players, the club still finds itself in a tough spot when it comes to the offensive tackle spot heading into week two of free agency.

While there has been some speculation that the club might be willing to entertain offers for the #3 overall pick, it sounds like New England plans on staying where they are next month.

The Patriots may be having a tough time attracting high-end talent when it comes to wide receivers, but that hasn’t stopped Eliot Wolf from trying to add talent to the offense.

The Vikings are among several teams who have been pondering a move up the draft board, but a move on Friday signals that they may at least be getting more serious about it.

The Patriots were busy adding some additional depth on Wednesday, adding Steelers free agent defensive tackle Armond Watts and offensive lineman Nick Leverett from Tampa Bay.

The New England Patriots made a full-court press on Jaguars free agent wide receiver Calvin Ridley, who finally made a decision late Wednesday.

After days of negotiations and an aggressive bid for Jaguars free agent wide receiver Calvin Ridley, both New England and the Jaguars apparently ended up getting outbid for Ridley’s services.

New defacto GM Eliot Wolf has certainly been busy.  He’s spent the first couple of days trying to sift through the rubble and clean up the mess, and he’s made relatively good progress.
