Patriots hosting projected first-round edge rusher on pre-draft visit

Adding another pass-rusher might not be at the top of the New England Patriots’ to-do list, but they are clearly keeping their options open with Clemson prospect Myles Murphy coming to town for a visit.

The standout ACC pass-rusher is projected to be taken in the first round of the 2023 NFL draft, but given the unpredictable nature of the draft board, the Patriots are doing their due diligence in evaluating the player.

Granted, it might also be more to it than that.

Perhaps the team would consider taking a pass-rusher instead of a receiver, cornerback or offensive tackle early.
