There’s no secret that the New England Patriots need to draft the heir to quarterback Tom Brady. The Patriots shipped away third-string quarterback Jacoby Brissett and back-up quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, leaving the 40-year-old Brady backed up by the 32-year-old Brian Hoyer.
The 2018 NFL Draft is supposed to be one of the deepest at the quarterback position in recent years, so the Patriots should have plenty of options. Sporting News’ Eric Galko spoke with people around the league to get a sense of which teams are favoring which quarterback, with the New York Giants liking UCLA’s Josh Rosen and the Pittsburgh Steelers liking Wyoming’s Josh Allen.
