New England Patriots:

Coming off of Thursday night’s selection of Drake Maye with the third overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Patriots find themselves with a new young signal-caller with plenty of upside as they try and turn things around on offense.

One interesting notion from Ben Volin was initially somewhat dismissable, but comments from Chicago Bears GM Ryan Poles are enough to make you wonder if it might be a possibility.

Brown had 88 catches for 1496 yards with 11 TDs in 2022. He followed that up with 106 catches for 1456 yards and 7 TDs in 2023.

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.
