With the NFL draft tonight it is a great time to reminisce on the drafts of the past.Since Bill Belichick joined the Patriots no franchise has had more success than the Pats, and that comes with a lot of successful picks in the draft.Despite all of the success over the past years, there have definitely been a few hiccups in past drafts.

Tuesday morning, Tom Brady took to Twitter to share some photos of himself and some of his old Patriots teammates enjoying their time together on a beach.The pictures feature Brady along with some of his former targets, including Danny Amendola, Julian Edelman, and Rob Gronkowski.In the first photo the quarterback is seen flicking a pass next to former Buccaneers teammate Blaine Gabbert.

As the official start of free agency nears, Jakobi Meyers' status to remain with the Patriots has begun to gain some steam.Besides being the presumed best available receiver of the free agent class this year, Meyers is also the Patriots' most productive asset to hit the market.He quickly became a mainstay in the offense over the last few seasons and, although not the traditional WR1 on most teams, became just that since Mac Jones took over the offense in 2021.

Free agency officially began just last week, and the Patriots have already made several moves that appear, at least on paper, to improve the team.However, Bill Belichick's decision not to re-sign fan favorite and beloved teammate Jakobi Meyers has not sat well with those in New England.Even Meyers himself seemed bothered upon seeing the contract JuJu Smith-Schuster received from his old team, a deal very similar to the one he got from the Raiders.

Throughout the twenty years of the Patriots' dynasty, we saw many phenomenal talents emerge from Gillette Stadium.Although most of the bad signings by Bill Belichick during that time seem to overshadow all the good ones, there were a lot of significant contributors to the latter half of the dynasty's success, including some under-the-radar names that didn't receive as much recognition.

Patriots Slade Bolden is a 5-foot-11-inch, 194-pound slot receiver who signed with the Ravens last year.The Patriots are scheduled to work out former Alabama wide receiver Slade Bolden, according to ESPN's Mike Reiss.Bolden was Mac Jones's roommate at Alabama, and later played under Bill O'Brien during the 2021 season.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy continued his impressive rookie campaign with a sensational performance in Saturday's NFC wild-card game against the Seattle Seahawks at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California.Purdy finished with 348 total yards (332 passing, 16 rushing) and four touchdowns (three passing, one rushing).

Patriots The Patriots are only three-point underdogs, but many experts still expect them to lose on Saturday.If sophomore quarterback Mac Jones really wants to expand on his brand, he'd embrace this opportunity under the microscope.Everybody from Vince Wilfork to Julian Edelman is criticizing the Patriots QB for acting like that obnoxious dolt in high school who whined to the gym teacher about some injustice while you continued to savor the five-hole.

Patriots Hunter Renfrow drew comparisons to Julian Edelman during his collegiate career at Clemson.Hiring Bill O'Brien is a step in the right direction for a Patriots team in need of an overhaul on offense.But personnel changes alone won't be enough to right the ship for Mac Jones and an underperforming unit.

It's time for Minnesota Vikings fans to band together and name "another Minneapolis Miracle" - and the second-worst Matt Ryan meltdown of all time.On Saturday, the Minnesota Vikings made NFL history with the biggest comeback in the league's history: a roaring 33-point return to glory that allowed the Vikings to take it to overtime and win it 39-36.

Patriots  GLENDALE, Ariz.(AP) - Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray was carted off the field during the team's first offensive drive after a knee injury Monday night in Arizona's game against the New England Patriots.The fourth-year quarterback was flushed out of the pocket on the third play of the game and ran to his right.

Former New England Patriots wide receiver Julian Edelman threw his hat in frustration after watching the team lose to the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 15.The New England Patriots may not have blown a 33-0 lead like the Indianapolis Colts did in Week 15, but they suffered quite a brutal loss.Facing off against the Las Vegas Raiders, the Patriots received possession of the football with less than a minute remaining with the game tied 24-24.
