INDIANAPOLIS — Four notes on the Patriots from the annual NFL Scouting Combine . . .
1. Perhaps the most popular Patriots-related conversation topic this past week was the market for Jakobi Meyers, who headlines a weak class of free agent wide receivers.
There’s mutual interest in a return, with Meyers repeatedly expressing his desire to continue to play for the Patriots. Retaining Meyers would be a smart decision, given his production, reliability, high character, and New England’s needs at the position. But money will obviously be a major determining factor in whether the 26-year-old Meyers suits up in New England for his fifth season and beyond.
