Patriots Can't Afford to Draft This Risky Player With Top Pick

The New England Patriots may not be able to land either of their top two targets with the fourth overall pick in the NFL Draft, as both Travis Hunter and Abdul Carter may be gone by the time the Patriots are on the clock.

This has resulted in some scrambling projections. While many are expecting New England to select LSU Tigers offensive tackle Will Campbell in this scenario, there are some wondering whether or not the Pats will take Georgia Bulldogs edge rusher Jalon Walker.

Walker's draft stock has been all over the place the last several weeks.
