Patriots rumors: New England's draft plan should Abdul Carter fall to them turns heads

The New England Patriots have the No. 4 pick in the NFL Draft, and it's still uncertain who the team will select. They will have a number of options with the pick, and they could possibly trade back to get more picks in later rounds. For now, all signs point to them keeping the pick, and there's a chance Abdul Carter could be their pick when they're on the clock. Surprisingly, word around the league is that if Carter is still there, they won't go for him, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz.

“The Patriots are a possibility — they hosted him — but most believe they're locked in on LSU OT Will Campbell even if Carter is there,” Schultz wrote.
