The team selected Will Campbell in the first round, followed by Jared Wilson in the third round, and then Marcus Bryant in the seventh round. And while Wilson was initially selected as a center out of Georgia, the Patriots have moved him over to left guard, where it appears he's in the running to become the starter.

The new era of Patriots football has a rat problem, and everyone seems to be having a way with it. New coach Mike Vrabel created the narrative when he posted a GIF from “The Departed” in the wake of a report emerging that receiver Ja’Lynn Polk needed season-ending surgery. Asked to elaborate, Vrabel provided some context.

So it only made sense to hop on the Amtrak earlier this month and head to Times Square to talk to the “NFL on CBS” gang about the new-look Patriots.
