Report: Patriots had ‘extensive’ meetings with pair of Ohio State prospects

The Patriots met with a pair of projected first-round picks during Ohio State’s pro day two weeks ago, according to Albert Breer of the MMQB.

“I know when they were at Ohio State,” Breer said during an appearance on the Greg Bedard Patriots podcast. “They sent both Adrian Klemm and Ross Douglas, their line coach and their receivers coach, and they had extensive private meetings with Paris Johnson and Jaxon Smith-Njigba.”

New England has the No. 14 overall pick in this month’s NFL Draft, and has needs at receiver and offensive tackle.
