Patriots owner Robert Kraft won’t be making any draft picks this year, but he knows the team has a key area to address.
He spoke to reporters at the league meetings and said he trusts the football staff, led by de facto General Manager Eliot Wolf and head coach Jerod Mayo, to handle the selections. However, he emphasized the importance of adding a talented young quarterback to the team.
Kraft mentioned he’d like to see the team acquire a top-quality young quarterback, leaving the decision-making to the football staff.
Mayo has also highlighted the quarterback position as a priority, stating the team will consider all options with the third pick. While Kraft’s comments won’t change the team’s approach, they emphasize the urgency of addressing the quarterback position before the new coach’s tenure begins.
