Well, there are a couple of variables to this one that affect the answer, right? Or at least they do for me.
If the Patriots stay at No. 15 in the first round, it’s more reasonable to me that they’ll draft something other than a quarterback. Perhaps a defensive player – say, South Carolina cornerback Jaycee Horn or Penn State linebacker Micah Parsons — that they like is there, and he fits a long-term need while also being someone capable of contributing in 2021.
I’m also not unconvinced that they’ll stay there and draft a lineman.
