Three ideal New England Patriots trade scenarios in the 2021 NFL Draft
It’s not a secret that the New England Patriots are still attempting to settle their quarterback situation leading up to the 2021 NFL Draft.
New England re-signed Cam Newton earlier in the offseason, but he’s seen as nothing more than a potential backup or stopgap option after struggling a season ago.
Meanwhile, the Pats have been linked to former Tom Brady backup Jimmy Garoppolo in a potential trade with the San Francisco 49ers. Depending on what direction the 49ers go with the third pick, Garoppolo could be a draft day trade option for Bill Belichick and Co.
All the while, rumors are now floating about that the Patriots are attempting to trade up from 15th overall to inside the top 10 for one of the quarterbacks deemed to be franchise-caliber. Right now, the target is said to be former Ohio State star Justin Fields. Below, we look at three ideal trade scenarios for the New England Patriots during the upcoming NFL Draft.
