Vikings coach jokes on buttering up Patriots for No. 3 draft pick

The New England Patriots remain steadfast in their desire to hold on to the third overall pick in the 2024 NFL draft. However, that hasn’t stopped several teams from trying to get New England to trade down.

The Minnesota Vikings are one of the teams who want the third overall selection in hopes of landing one of the top quarterbacks in the draft. Minnesota could use a younger signal-caller to fill the position, following the departure of Kirk Cousins to the Atlanta Falcons.

However, it would probably take a large offer for the Patriots’ organization to even consider moving the draft pick.
