"The New England Patriots have put themselves in an excellent position going into this offseason, with plenty of options coming draft time. No doubt, the team has its fair share of holes: the offensive line could stand to improve, adding an edge rusher would be nice, and depth in the defensive backfield will be key, but all in all, they aren't tied down to take one specific position come the draft."
"He led the way for IU as a receiver, cracking 800 yards from 58 catches with 11 touchdowns. He has a solid 50% contested catch rate, especially considering he's spent the vast majority of his time in the slot. The Patriots already have Stefon Diggs and Pop Douglas as slot options, but selecting Cooper could allow Diggs to play on the outside, while he's also an upgrade over Douglas."
New England enters the offseason with strong positioning and multiple draft options. The roster needs include offensive-line improvement, an edge rusher, and added depth in the defensive backfield. The College Football Playoffs begin December 19 with matchups that feature numerous future draft prospects. Indiana's offense, led by potential top pick Fernando Mendoza, contains wideouts Omar Cooper and Elijah Sarratt; Cooper posted 800 yards on 58 catches with 11 touchdowns and a 50% contested catch rate while mostly playing the slot. Cooper could allow Stefon Diggs to move outside and represents an upgrade over Pop Douglas. Linebacker Sonny Styles is mentioned as a possible upgrade behind Robert Spillane and Christian Elliss.
