Some news and notes on this Tuesday:
1) With the draft creeping closer, the number of mock drafts and different scenarios are likely to increase and it appears we’re already starting to see some of that.
In their latest mock draft, Pro Football Focus has the Patriots taking quarterback Trey Lance at #15 overall, with Steve Palazzolo of PFF predicting Justin Fields going to San Francisco, while Mac Jones ends up in Denver at #9 overall.
In the case of the 49ers, PFF believes that the success Kyle Shanahan had with Robert Griffin III, at least prior to his injury, “hit another level” and Palazzolo believes that’s the reason they may select Fields.
