The New England Patriots could use the upcoming NFL draft to pick up some toys for second-year quarterback Drake Maye.
Drafting a wide receiver, especially in the first few rounds, would be a splashy move for the Patriots, and probably one that’s needed, too. Getting a young tight end into the system wouldn’t be a bad decision, either.
But New England taking a running back is going under-the-radar and it’s trending like the Patriots will add to that position through the draft. The Patriots already have Rhamondre Stevenson and Antonio Gibson as their top running backs, but they could use a more exclusive pass-catching back in their offense.
