Five Patriots & NFL Things to Know 4/14
Some news and notes for this morning:
1) Maurice Jones-Drew did a mock draft over at NFL.com and he predicts a trade-up by New England after San Francisco let Mac Jones go in favor of Justin Fields.
In his scenario, he had a trade between the Patriots and the Lions for the #7 overall selection, which allowed New England to select Jones.
From there, the Lions went on to select Penn State linebacker Micah Parsons with the 15th overall pick.
What happens at Fields’ pro day will likely be the deal-breaker as both New England and San Francisco will be on hand for that one, which will likely make up Kyle Shanahan’s mind in terms of who he’ll want to move forward with.
