Now that the NFL draft is in the books, let's take a way-too-early look at the Patriots' 53-man roster.
How many rookies will make it? What does the receiver room look like? Will a rookie quarterback make the final cut? Exactly how many special-teams specialists will comprise the 53?
Let's find out...
Quarterback (2): Mac Jones, Bailey Zappe
Pretty self-explanatory here. The Patriots didn't invest a draft pick or real free-agent dollars at this spot. One of either Trace McSorley (signed as a free agent) or Malik Cunningham (signed as an undrafted rookie) could be kept aboard to land on the practice squad, but neither player seems likely to win an active-roster role.
