Breer: Why Kraft is unlikely to part with Mayo or Wolf in 2025

Jerod Mayo has taken plenty of heat amid the New England Patriots' 3-10 start. But you could argue de facto general manager Eliot Wolf deserves a fair share of blame as well.

After all, Wolf and the front office are responsible for a roster that lacks talent at crucial positions like wide receiver and offensive line. Free-agent acquisitions K.J. Osborn (seven receptions in seven games played) and Chukwuma Okorafor (left the team after Week 2) have been massive failures, while 2024 draft picks like wide receivers Ja'Lynn Polk and Javon Baker have given the team very little production (12 receptions for 87 yards combined).
