Patriots Have Legitimate Interest In Lamar Jackson
7 years agoThe New England Patriots interest in Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson is legitimate. The Patriots have been tied to Jackson for a while, and it looks like they are really considering him as the heir apparent to Tom Brady. Jackson could easily fall in the first round, but New England still may need to trade up within the first round in order to secure his services. The Pats have plenty of ammunition to do so after acquiring an extra first-rounder from the Rams in the Brandin Cooks trade. New England is set to pick at No. 23 and No. 31 in the first round.
