Patriots predicted to swing trade with Saints, land 1,319-yard Drake Maye weapon

The New England Patriots have a host of options available with the number-four pick in the NFL Draft.

If either edge-rusher Abdul Carter or wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter falls to four, the consensus is that New England should take that player. But if both are gone, many more scenarios come into play.

The Patriots need a receiver, and they may be able to trade back a few spots in the draft and still land a good one. That would enable them to take advantage of a team that may want to trade up for quarterback Shedeur Sanders, such as the New Orleans Saints.
