Patriots draft series: Chris Jones would power up middle of defensive line

Mississippi State defensive tackle Chris Jones is the focus in the third installment of a 28-day series that will highlight draft prospects who could land with the Patriots in the second round (pick Nos. 60 or 61) of this month’s draft. Because the draft is so unpredictable after the first night, some of these prospects might require the Patriots to trade up into the late-40s, while other prospects could be taken earlier in the third round if they choose to trade down. Be sure to come back each day for a new installment of the series.
