In most years, the worst teams in the NFL can bank on getting an immediate difference-maker at the top of draft.
But not this year.
NFL draft analysts are extremely down on this year’s crop of prospects, believing they come nowhere close to stacking up to past draft classes. That’s bad news for the New England Patriots, who currently hold the fourth overall pick.
But all hope isn’t lost for the Patriots and the rest of the dregs of the league. One AFC scout believes there is a single player that stands out among the current group of draft-eligible players and has the best chance of being an NFL star.
