#PostPulpit Mailbag: Are the Patriots’ young defenders enough along the edge?

We are officially less than three weeks away until the New England Patriots take the backfields of Gillette Stadium for the start of training camp. With plenty of interesting storylines on the horizon, let’s hop right into this week’s #PostPulpit mailbag.

However, it appears he still is facing an uphill battle for him to stick around on the 53-man roster. With the Patriots acquiring DeVante Parker and Tyquan Thornton this offseason to pair with Kendrick Bourne, Jakobi Meyers and Nelson Agholor, the receiver room is extremely deep.
