With free agency essentially in the rear-view mirror, the NFL’s attention has shifted towards the draft.
The Patriots have pick No. 23 overall and there hasn’t really been a true consensus among mock drafts of who they will select — or even a position. But, with Tom Brady departing for Tampa Bay, quarterback has been trendy position for the team to select with that pick.
A number of mock drafts have the team picking Utah State’s Jordan Love or Washington’s Jacob Eason, who is not the son of Tony Eason who played quarterback for the Patriots in the 1980s.
