Why the Patriots at 24th
The Patriots need a receiver: one receiver has played 70% of the snaps over the last three games. He is the 5th wide receiver on our board, and the next wide receiver on our board is Reed Harris of Arizona State, 1.1 points back; the better grade left, Josh Hoover (quarterback, Indiana), fills a smaller need here. At 5' 11", 180 lbs, the senior starts outside from his first game.
