Patriots Make Shocking First-Round Pick In Ex-NFL GM’s Mock Draft

Travis Hunter and/or Abdul Carter falling to No. 4 might be a dream scenario for the Patriots. If neither is available, New England could pivot to Will Campbell, arguably the best offensive lineman in the 2025 draft class.

That’s not how Mike Tannenbaum sees things shaking out, however.

Tannenbaum, a former NFL general manager who now works as an ESPN analyst, released a first-round mock draft Tuesday. After Cam Ward, Hunter and Shedeur Sanders were selected with the first three picks, respectively, Tannebaum attached Missouri O-lineman Armand Membou to the Patriots at fourth overall.
