Heading into this week’s 2024 NFL draft, the New England Patriots have at least once selection to make in each round (two in the sixth), making for eight total.
There are many holes on the Patriots’ roster at this point in the offseason, and wide receiver is near the top of the list.
At this point, New England’s wideout room includes Kendrick Bourne, K.J. Osborn, DeMario Douglas, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Jalen Reagor, Tyquan Thornton, Kayshon Boutte, T.J. Luther and Kawaan Baker.
Patriots’ de facto general manager Eliot Wolf and head coach Jerod Mayo should be looking for starting-caliber wide receivers throughout the seven-round selection event.
Here are seven wideouts that the Patriots could consider drafting this week, one in each round.
