The New England Patriots have mixed in a few wins in recent weeks -- which could make things a bit more interesting next spring.
After holding a top-three pick in the 2025 NFL Draft for stretches early in the 2024 season, the Patriots currently sit at No. 6 in the draft order with a 3-8 record. If they stay outside the top five, that likely means top prospects like Colorado wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter -- a popular selection for New England in earlier mock drafts -- would be off the board.
So, which direction could the Patriots go in if they pick sixth (or later) in the 2025 draft?
