Patriots 2021 mock draft: Bill Belichick drafts a TE that will change the offense and the perfect developmental QB

The New England Patriots have huge offseason needs at quarterback, receiver and tight end. That was abundantly clear throughout the 2020 season. But Bill Belichick also surely recognizes his issues defending the run — and you can bet he’ll want to address those problems immediately. So this mock draft makes sure to get a pair of talented linebackers and a defensive tackle to help restock New England’s stable of talented players in the front seven — while also loading up on offensive weapons.

With the Patriots (7-9) finishing up their season, New England is set to pick at 15th overall.
