The anticipation continues to build ahead of the 2024 NFL Draft, as the New England Patriots sit in an ideal spot to make some considerable noise on Thursday night.

Selecting a top-rated quarterback has been the general assumption for New England, but the possibility of a trade-down scenario is one that's picked up steam in recent weeks.
Among the teams to have rumored interest in a move up the board, the Minnesota Vikings have been the most frequent name appearing in whispers around the league, but it now looks as if another suitor from the NFC could enter into the fold as well.
