The New England Patriots have to be feeling pretty good about their chances of signing five-time All-Pro wideout DeAndre Hopkins.
No, it isn’t a sure thing, but the Patriots stand as strong suitors from both a financial and competitive standpoint. Hopkins could strategically drag his feet all the way up to training camp to see if another team is desperate enough to raise the stakes on the offers already on the table.
So there’s clearly some risk there for the Patriots.
But when looking at the visit alone, New England reportedly made a strong impression on the veteran receiver.
