The No. 15 pick in the NFL Draft is a nice thing to have. It’s the best pick the New England Patriots have had in a decade.
But when you need a new franchise quarterback in the NFL Draft, it’s might not be enough to do the trick if you want one of those top-tier prospects.
If this year’s mock drafts are any indication, the Patriots have a shot at Alabama quarterback Mac Jones with the No. 15 pick. Over 10% of mock drafts have the Patriots taking Jones with that 15th pick (per NFL Mock Draft Database), with the majority of projections having him fall into further into Round 1.
