Mock Draft<\/strong><\/h3>\n

As of this writing the Patriots have not signed a Left Tackle in Free Agency.\u00a0 They did beef up the Defense with DT Milton Williams, CB Carlton Davis, LB Robert Spillane and DT Khyiris Tonga.\u00a0 On Offense they have signed a RT in Morgan Moses, QB Josh Dobbs and WR Mack Hollins.<\/p>\n

I used the PFF Mock Draft Simulator for Rounds 1-3 and then switched to the PFF Big Board for the remainder of the draft since PFF hasn\u2019t updated their computer model with the compensation picks.<\/p>\n

I am assuming that Abdul Carter and Travis Hunter are selected within the top three selections.<\/p>\n

Pick 1-4 Armand Membou T Missouri<\/strong> \u2013 I am not sold on Will Campbel as a Left Tackle.\u00a0 His play this season didn\u2019t impress me and I don\u2019t like the short arms and short wingspan.\u00a0 I understand there are some big fans of his in the Front Office.\u00a0 Membou tested very well at the Combine.\u00a0 The 6\u20194\u201d 332-pound Right Tackle has 33 \u00bd \u201c arms, ran a blistering 4.91 40-yard dash (2),34\u201d Vertical Jump (4), 9\u20197\u201d Broad Jump (1) and Bench Pressed 225# 31 times (2).\u00a0 Membou was also terrific in the field drills.\u00a0 The Patriots need help at Right Tackle too, so taking Membou is the smart play.\u00a0 Reports have surfaced that Membou may be taken as high as #5 by Jacksonville.\u00a0 \u201cOverall, Membou is a young prospect (20-years-old) who is a loose, explosive mover with a dense, powerful build, good length, and a rugged demeanor that allows him to match up on an island in pass protection and deliver body blows as a finisher. There are rough edges with his aiming points and hands that lead to penetration and falling off of blocks that will need to get cleaned up. Still, his physical tools, pass protection skills and demeanor signal a year one starter with the runway to become an impact player at tackle or guard.\u201d \u2013 Brandon Thorn Trench Warfare and Bleacher Report
\n\u201cOverall, Membou projects as a sure-fire starter, contingent on a strong 2024 campaign. Once he establishes himself in the league, he\u2019s poised to become a versatile lineman capable of seamlessly transitioning between positions for years to come.\u201d \u2013 Draft Network.\u00a0 The signing of Morgan Moses is a temporary fix and allows Membou to learn the Pro game and not be required to start right away.<\/p>\n

2-38 Josh Conerly T Oregon<\/strong> \u2013 The Patriots double down on the Oline when Conerly falls in their lap at #38.\u00a0 A terrific LT that also doesn\u2019t have to start right away.\u00a0 The 6\u20195\u201d, 311-pound Tackle ran a very good 5.05 40.\u00a0 Some may remember the one bad rep that Conerly had at the Senior Bowl where he got trucked by Marshall Edge Rusher Mike Green.\u00a0 In Conerly\u2019s defense he was asked to play Right Tackle, which is not his position.\u00a0 Secondly, Green, a speed rusher, surprised Conerly with a Bull Rush that put him on his butt.\u00a0 Other than that, one play Conerly was very good all week.\u00a0 Conerly is just 21-years-old<\/p>\n

3-69 Mason Taylor TE LSU <\/strong>\u2013 The nephew of Miami Defensive Ends coach and Pro Football Hall of Fame inductee Jason Taylor.\u00a0 The 6\u20195\u201d 250-pound TE wowed Daniel Jeremiah when he ran the gauntlet drill.\u00a0 Taylor painted the 35-yard line and at full speed caught every ball thrown to him with ease.\u00a0 Last season he had 55 catches for 546 yards and a 9.9 YPC and 2 TDs.\u00a0 Taylor did not run the 40 at the Combine, choosing to put that off to his Pro Day. However, in the field drills he was magnificent.\u00a0 \u201cEverything he does is smooth and natural,\u201d an NFL Network commentator said of the record-setting pass-catcher. \u201cHe\u2019s polished as a route-runner, understands how to work back to the quarterback. He tracks it well.\u201d\u00a0 Taylor holds the LSU records for receptions and yards by a Tight End.<\/p>\n

3-77 Jaylin Noel WR Iowa State <\/strong>\u2013 Noel was already on my radar after a great performance at the Senior Bowl practices where he blew everyone away.\u00a0 His performance at the combine was one of the top efforts.\u00a0 His 4.39 40 (10) was very fast, 41.50 Vertical Jump (2), 11\u2019 2\u201d Broad Jump (1) 6.82 3-cone Drill (6) and Bench Pressed 225# 23 reps (1).\u00a0 Noel was considered a sleeper.\u00a0 Everyone knows his name now! Noel stands 5\u201910\u201d 194-pounds and is a slot receiver.\u00a0 One knock against Noel is he has small hands at 8 \u00be\u201d.\u00a0 Noel finished his senior season for Iowa State with 80 catches, 1194 yards, and 8 TDs.<\/p>\n

4- 111 JJ Peuges DT Mississippi <\/strong>\u2013 Peuges is a very interesting character.\u00a0 He stands 6\u20192 1\/2\u201d<\/sup> , 309-pounds and ran a 5.15 40-yard dash. \u00a0\u00a0Mississippi used him as a short yardage running back and he scored two TDs.\u00a0 After the on-field workouts for the Defensive Tackles concluded, Peuges had a separate workout at Fullback and caught the ball very well.\u00a0 His position versatility is what will attract the Patriots brass.\u00a0 To this point the Patriots have not picked a D Lineman.\u00a0 NFL.com gave him a 6.25 Prospect Grade which equated to an average starter.<\/p>\n

5-155 \u00a0Issac TeSlaa WR\u00a0 <\/strong>– One of my favorite players in the draft.\u00a0 <\/strong>TeSlaa is an under-the-radar player with great physical tools.\u00a0 He stands 6\u20194\u201d, 214-pounds and ran a 4.43 40-yard dash and a 1.51 10-yard split which was Tied for 4th<\/sup>. These are excellent numbers for a player of his size.\u00a0 He was the #1 ranked WR tester at the Combine, with an Athletic score of 96 of a possible 100.\u00a0 His Relative Athletic Score (RAS) is 9.96 out of 10.0.\u00a0 The numbers were incredible with a 39.5\u201d Vertical Jump (4T), 10\u2019 9\u201d Broad Jump (6), 6.85 3-cone Drill, 4.05 Short Shuttle (1) and 17 reps on the bench Press (3T).\u00a0 He has very large 10\u201d hands and 311\/2\u201d<\/sup> arms.\u00a0 I want my receivers to be under a 4.5 40 and have a 3-cone drill under 7.\u00a0 TeSlaa also shined in the pass catching drills with a nice adjustment to a deep ball that was underthrown and to his inside where he had to turn around in stride to make the catch.\u00a0 He only had 28 catches for 546 yards and 3 TDs in 2024 and 32 catches the year before in the SEC, after playing 3 seasons at DII Hillsdale College where he was the Great Midwest American Conference Offensive Player of the Year in 2022.\u00a0\u00a0 That season he caught 68 passes for 1325 yards and 13 TDs in 11 games.<\/p>\n

7 -245 \u00a0Raheim Sanders RB South Carolina <\/strong>\u2013 With the adjusted picks I thought the value would be at Runningback and took \u201cRocket\u201d Sanders.\u00a0 Rocket\u2019s 4.47 40-yard dash (at 217 pounds) is solid, but not spectacular. However, his nickname doesn\u2019t come from his burst at the start of runs, but rather his long speed and the fact that he was rarely caught from behind. And on that note, Sanders\u2019 two runs were the two fastest runs of the running back group at 23.55 mph and 23.48 mph.\u00a0 Sanders isn\u2019t exactly quick, but he did show some good feet in the bag drills and solid hands in the receiving drills.<\/p>\n

7-248 \u00a0Dan Jackson S Georgia <\/strong>– \u00a0Jackson was a Combine snub.\u00a0 He ran an impressive 4.44 40-yard dash at his Pro Day which should get him drafted.\u00a0 His projected 40 time was 4.58.\u00a0 Jackson was a walk on at Georgia and has been counted out his entire career.\u00a0 He was selected for the Senior bowl after receiving 3rd<\/sup> Team All SEC in 2024.\u00a0 At the Senior Bowl he was selected as the Practice Player of the Week for the American Team over much more heralded players.\u00a0 This vote was made by the players he played against all week.\u00a0 I watched a couple of plays he made in the game itself, and he is very instinctive.\u00a0 He read the play and didn\u2019t hesitate to fly up from his deep safety position to make a critical open field tackle.\u00a0 Bottom line is that Jackson is a Football Player and there is always room on a team for a smart and heady player.\u00a0 He plays Special Teams and blocked a punt last season.<\/p>\n

7-265\u00a0 Nicholas Martin LB Oklahoma State \u2013 <\/strong>Martin is a smaller linebacker in the Mike Vrabel mold at just 5\u201911 1\/2<\/sup>\u201d and 221-pounds.\u00a0 In 2023 he had 149 Tackles and was named 1st<\/sup> Team All-Big 12.\u00a0 He was named a team captain for 2024 but played only 5 games due to a knee injury.\u00a0 You don\u2019t have to worry about the knee because he ran a 4.53 40-yard dash (5), Vertical 38\u201d (4), 10\u20193\u201d BJ (4), and Bench Pressed 225# 26 times (T1).\u00a0 His overall 82 Athleticism Score ranked 5th<\/sup> amongst all linebackers at the combine.\u00a0 He may initially end up as a Special Teams player but with that speed and tackling ability I believe he will be a very good addition.<\/p>\n

David Andrews Released<\/strong><\/p>\n

The rumor\/report that David Andrews was about to be released came out on Monday.\u00a0 I am not surprised by this and that is why I listed Drew Dalman the former Falcons Center who signed with Chicago as one of the Free Agents I wanted the patriots to get.<\/p>\n

Andrews was the consummate Pro.\u00a0 He came so far as a UDFA to a 2x Super Bowl winner.\u00a0 He was a leader and 8x team Captain.\u00a0 Andrews always faced the music in good times and bad.\u00a0 He was always present for the media after games.\u00a0 The center got the most out of his ability and he will be missed.\u00a0 I thought it was quite the testament that Robert Kraft felt that he had to send out a statement about Andrews when the press release occurred.\u00a0 \u00a0 Andrews had been with the Patriots since 2015, starting 121 games for the franchise.<\/p>\n

\u201cDavid Andrews’ career success is a shining example of what every NFL prospect should strive to achieve,” Patriots owner Robert Kraft said in a statement released by the team.<\/p>\n

Jonathan Jones and Deatrich Wise sign with Washington<\/strong><\/p>\n

Both players signed one-year contracts, Jones for $6.5M and Wise for $5M.\u00a0 I think Washington overpaid for both players.\u00a0 Being on the wrong side of 30 didn\u2019t help.\u00a0 I didn’t expect them to be back.<\/p>\n

Jacoby Brissett Signs with Arizona<\/strong><\/p>\n

His contract is two-years at $12.5M with $8M guaranteed.\u00a0 Not bad for a backup to Kyle Murray.<\/p>\n

Dearth of Leadership<\/strong><\/p>\n

With Jon Jones, Deatrich Wise, and Jacoby Brissett leaving, and David Andrews being released there is a void of leadership on this team.\u00a0 I suspect that Drake Maye will take some of this on and newly acquired LB Robert Spillane was a Captain in Las Vegas.\u00a0 JuWhaun Bentley is a remaining Captain as is Joe Cardona.\u00a0 They are also the last two links to the Patriot\u2019s last Super Bowl winning teams.\u00a0 Bentley (28) and the same age as Spillane, doesn\u2019t fit the new scheme of the Defense that Vrabel and Terrell Williams want to run and could be another candidate for release.\u00a0 Cardona is 32 and on the wrong side of 30.\u00a0 Bentley and Spillane are both run stuffers and liabilities in the pass defense.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Morse\"},\"description\":\"Merrimack Valley native and lifelong fan of the New England Patriots. My earliest memories of the Patriots were attending as a child with my dad, the off-season practice at Phillips Academy.
