ESPN lists Patriots 4th in new ranking of potential head coach vacancies

According to multiple reports, the Patriots are not likely to fire Jerod Mayo this year.

But, with New England’s record at 3-12 and a few weeks left in the season, rumors of a potential firing have been swirling anyway.

So, if the Krafts were to make the unlikely move and fire Mayo, where would the job opening stack up against other NFL vacancies in terms of desirability?

ESPN ranks the Patriots fourth in the NFL in that department. Only the Bears, Dolphins, and Jaguars rank higher.

Why would the Patriots be so desirable?
