ESPN offers grim future outlook for Patriots young talent

New England Patriots fans may be excited for the future of the organization, given all of the young talent on their roster. However, the latest ESPN ranking for under-25 talent isn’t nearly as optimistic for the Patriots.

ESPN’s Aaron Schatz ranked young talent around the NFL, and he put the Patriots at 25th overall in under-25 talent.

It’s a tough conclusion when considering the players on the Patriots’ roster. Cornerback Christian Gonzalez and quarterback Drake Maye were both listed as blue-chip young talent for the Patriots.

Gonzalez is looking to bounce back after a season-ending injury as a rookie, following a solid four-game stretch.
