@Savageboston I think Boutte is traded for something if not AJ and Pop is amongst the final cuts.

@Savageboston Keep an eye on this kid. I only saw him in one game against UMASS and he stood out. He was everywhere. Competition level aside, you can’t teach his kind of instincts. I think he’s a sleeper to make the roster.
English
I don’t think he “needs” to be a hit, but I certainly wish they left the draft with a starting caliber off ball linebacker.
Boston Buzzer@TheBostonBuzzer
The Patriots kind of need Namdi Obiazor to be a hit. They are very thing at off-ball linebacker, basically having only Robert Spillane and Christian Ellis at that spot. An injury to either one and Obiazor is the first in line to be a starter.

@PatsPro_21 I don’t see anything saying that it’s connected. It just seems to me like they did not like what he was doing for the team scouting reports etc. Not sure what that means for the recent draft class, so that’s concerning.
English
Explain it to be like I’m 5. Why is this connected to the Vrabel/Russini story?
Isn’t it a common practice to get rid of scouting staff after a draft has been completed?
Am I missing something?
Savage@Savageboston
The Patriots have fired Marshall Oium, the director of scouting projects. Per: @AaronWilson_NFL
English
@LosTalksPats @CMU_Football I actually remeber this kid from a UMASS game this past season. I was shocked for see the game on TV down here in NC. So I put it on and this kid was everywhere. Was around the ball on what seemed like every play.
English
The #Patriots have invited Central Michigan LB Jordan Kwiatkowski to their Rookie Minicamp.
The 6’0, 229-pound senior led his team with 117 total tackles last season while also racking up 14 TFLs, 3 sacks, and 3 interceptions.
English
@BellinoZee They said it on the broadcast. When he okays with the proper angles and leverage he’s one of the best. Hes just super inconsistent fo some reason. Is it focus? Desire? Who knows. Late round picks are all fliers anyways so why not take a shot on a guy that could be solid
English
@NickCRadio I want Perkins, Fisher, Kilgore, Styles Jr, Caldwell, Randall (no particular order)
English
We're down to six left from my original list that stood out to me on Day 3. Here's my new list. We're roughly 20 picks away from #171:
- LB: Harold Perkins
- LB: Aiden Fisher
- OG: Billy Schrauth
- OG: Micah Morris
- OG/OT: Logan Taylor
- Safety: Zakee Wheatley
- Safety: VJ Payne
- CB: Charles Demmings
- WR: Lewis Bond
- WR: Jeff Caldwell
- RB: Adam Randall
- OT: Dametrious Crownover
- OT: Aamil Wagner
- QB: Haynes King
- QB: Taylen Green
Nick Cattles@NickCRadio
Top three needs heading into Day 3: LB, OG, and Safety. Wouldn’t be surprised if they spent a pick on: WR, OT, DT, CB, RB, or QB. Some names that stick out and I’d be happy with: - LB/Safety: Kyle Louis - LB: Bryce Boettcher - LB: Kaleb Elarms-Orr - LB: Harold Perkins - OG: Jeremiah Wright - OG: Billy Schrauth - Safety: Zakee Wheatley - WR: Skyler Bell - WR: Bryce Lance - WR: Elijah Sarratt - OT: Travis Burke - OT: Jude Bowry - DT: Kaleb Proctor - CB: Jermod McCoy (Knee) - CB: Keionte Scott - RB: Adam Randall - QB: Haynes King - QB: Cade Klubnik - QB: Taylen Green
English
@tkyles39 For real. While I like the aggressive approach they took trading up to get their guys, not having picks right now and watching good players continue to come off the board is a bit infuriating.
English
Hate how much I like these drafts from the other AFC East teams
English
Players I’d be keeping my eye on for the Pats today. Without a 4th though a trade would be needed for some.
Safties- Kilgore, Wheatley,VJ Payne
WR’s- Sarratt,Lance, Caldwell
LB’s-Perkins Jr, Elarms-Orr, Justin Jefferson
DT- Kaleb Proctor
Line- lots of depth here
English
@_AndrewCallahan Definitely Pregnon and Bell. Those were the two I would have been fighting for.

Eliot Wolf said most of the draft-room debate the #Patriots had happened prior to picking Raridon, but the other players in consideration were selected before they were up at No. 95 overall.
Here were the 10 players picked right before Raridon:

What to know about Patriots 95th overall pick, Notre Dame TE Eli Raridon: bostonherald.com/2026/04/24/pat…
English
@PatsPro_21 I feel good about Lomu given he doesn’t need to start right away. I LOVE Jacas. His style of play is just what the defense needs. I like Raridon but wish Delp had fallen, and woud have gone with Jolly over Raridon, but by the slightest margin.
English
I fucking love this draft class so far.
Nick Cattles@NickCRadio
My prior list are all guys I'd be happy with. But, if the Pats draft Eli Raridon, I might faint. He's a favorite of mine.
English
Blessed is an understatement! Let’s get to work.
New England Patriots@Patriots
GABE. JACAS. 🙂↕️ @Gabeosama | @IlliniFootball
English
@Savageboston Personally I would have preferred Jolly over Raridon, but only by a slight margin. Was mad Bell went to the Dolphins right before.
English
@Cnolin1976 He's a good one. Super for the team too. A real good vibes guy.
English
Caleb Lomu and Gabe Jacas?!?! Good lord. It's like Wolf/Vrabel/Cowden are listening to us....
Are we going to get Oscar Delp next? If so I'm going to need new walls in my house!!!!

English
@PatsPro_21 Same! This guy is 100% a Vrabel type of player. Violent, fast & relentless
English
Patriots select Illinois edge Gabe Jacas in the second round (No. 55):
🏈6-4, 260 pounds
🏈 4-year starter
🏈2025: 43 tackles (13.5 TFL), 11 sacks
🏈 Possible versatility to tap
🏈Ourlads: "Powerful frame with upper & lower body mass...flashes snap quickness as pass rusher."
English
Apparently I really like all these 2nd round players. I find myself saying “Damn! I wanted him for the Patriots”After every pick. 🤦♂️
English
@Savageboston Add Crawford and Height to that list an I’ll be happy with any of them honestly. I Prefer Jacas or Young
