Despite their losses in free agency, the New England Patriots have one of the deepest rosters in the league. However, there are still some noticeable holes that need to be addressed both in the short and in the long run: from starting left tackle to linebacker to cornerback to developmental quarterback. Entering this month's draft with plenty of capital, the Patriots will have plenty of chances to bolster all of those positions.
And if everything goes according to how E$PN's Todd McShay projects it, the team will do just that. McShay recently released a three-round mock draft and it has New England address all of its current needs:
New England Patriots
Round 1 (23): Mike McGlinchey, OT, Notre Dame
Round 1 (31): Josh Jackson, CB, Iowa
Round 2 (43): Darius Leonard, LB, South Carolina State
Round 2 (63): Rasheem Green, DE, USC
Round 3 (95): Kyle Lauletta, QB, RichmondMcShay starts his mock by giving the Patriots the top offensive tackle to enter this year's draft: Mike McGlinchey.
