ESPN insider has Patriots taking new QB-WR combo in first two rounds of mock draft

ESPN’s Field Yates has a plan for how the New England Patriots should approach the 2024 NFL draft. Here’s one hint: It includes a quarterback and some playmakers to surround him with.

In his latest two-round mock draft, Yates projected New England to take North Carolina quarterback Drake Maye with the third overall pick. Maye finished up his run with the Tar Heels last season throwing for 3,608 yards, 24 touchdowns and nine interceptions.

The top pick is obviously much easier to project for the Patriots than the No.
