The New England Patriots may or may not take a receiver with the No. 14 overall pick of the 2023 NFL draft, but one thing is certain: They are doing some serious homework at the position.
That includes bringing in prospects for visits and having offensive coordinator Bill O’Brien dive into the playbook with some of them. According to ESPN draft analyst Jordan Reid, the Patriots have been eying Boston College’s Zay Flowers, USC’s Jordan Addison and Ole Miss’ Jonathan Mingo closely.
There’s no question the Patriots have a serious need at the receiver position, and there’s a real chance that one of the upcoming prospects could help fill that hole on their roster.
