We’re 9 days out from Round 1 of the draft and I’ve officially settled on my prediction for the Patriots top pick: Edge Malachi Lawrence, UCF



The #Patriots hosted Missouri DE Zion Young for a 30 visit, per @AryePulliNFL. The 6’6 262-pound edge with 33” arms is a strong run defender and can convert speed to power as a rusher. Young met with New England at the Combine and is said to have lots of fans in the building.










The #Patriots are said to have offered a 1st and 3rd-round pick in exchange for WR AJ Brown but the Eagles declined, per @AnthonyLGargano. “Howie is holding firm and now you’re seeing teams like Buffalo that were in it [moving on].” - @MikeGarafolo

I’ve heard the Patriots interest in DJ Moore is real. Also gonna start hearing more about how much they like Alec Pierce this week.


The Giants are “actively exploring” trades for DE Kayvon Thibodeaux, per @Connor_J_Hughes. Those around the NFL have a hard time seeing him go for more than a fourth-round pick. Thibodeaux could be a potential option for the #Patriots, who are firmly in the edge market.
