NFL insider Field Yates thinks the Patriots should trade up for Trey Lance rather than Mac Jones

Nobody knows in which direction the New England Patriots will go during the 2021 NFL draft, but it seems likely that they will add to a quarterback room currently headed by incumbent starter Cam Newton and third-year backup Jarrett Stidham. The biggest question is who they will target and when they will do just that.

One popular scenario around NFL media is New England trading up from the 15th overall selection to grab one of the top-five available. With the Jacksonville Jaguars, New York Jets and San Francisco 49ers all expected to go quarterback with the first three picks, two of those top-five could be available with the fourth or subsequent selections.
