Many anticipate that the Patriots will utilize their highest pick since 1993 to select a potential cornerstone quarterback, especially given the abundance of talent at that position in this year’s draft class. However, it seems premature to make definitive forecasts at this stage. According to Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo, speaking with NFL Network’s Steve Wyche at the Annual League Meeting, while quarterback is undeniably a focus for the team heading into the draft, it’s not necessarily predetermined that this is the sole direction they will take with their first pick. Mayo stated, “It’s the priority right now, but with that being said, you have to really be enamored with the individual to select him at No. 3. So, essentially, all possibilities remain open for us.”
