The NFL combine is fast approaching and this years players coming from college are thought as one of the best the league has seen in many years. There are many notable top tier quarterbacks and the New England Patriots are seemingly checking them all out for their number 3 overall pick. The Patriots were one of the worst teams in Bill Belichick’s final season with the team, and they are looking to make a huge turn around to get back to the top of the league.
New England Patriots Are Meeting With All The Top QB Prospects
The team is not ruling any of the top three quarterback candidates out for this years draft, and although the two picks before them will probably both be quarterback selections, they will have the ability to move up one or two picks to get the guy they want.
Per Eliot Wolf, the Patriots are going to meet with Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, and Jayden Daniels this week.
One of those three gentleman will for sure be available at the third pick but they also have the option to try and trade up as there are now rumors of the Bears trading the top pick. The Patriots are in dire need of a quarterback since they lost the greatest Tom Brady and this years draft should be the one where they find that real next quarterback.
NFL Combine Will Be Electric This Year
With this new report coming out of the team meeting with all the three top quarterback prospects this should nullify the idea that the Patriots would select Marvin Harrison Jr. with their pick and then look for a quarterback later on in the draft.
New head coach Jerod Mayo knows the team needs a quarterback most importantly and then they can figure out everything else. They should select one of these top 3 guys that is available for their pick or maybe even trade up a pick or two to get the guy that they absolutely want.
