In an ideal world, the New England Patriots’ rookie class will save the day and replace the tremendous losses the team had this offseason.
Kyle Van Noy, Jamie Collins, Dont’a Hightower, Stephen Gostkowski, James Develin, Danny Vitale and Patrick Chung are on a list of players who held positions that will be replaced by rookies. This doesn’t include the void that Rob Gronkowski left — providing another hole that Patriots’ rookies will attempt to seal up.
Kyle Dugger, Josh Uche, Anfernee Jennings, Devin Asiasi and Dalton Keene were all selected within the first three rounds of the draft this year with expectations to make an impact in the 2020 season.
