The New England Patriots have been one of the most dominant teams in the NFL for over two decades, but even the greatest teams have weaknesses. And for the Patriots, that weakness has been glaringly obvious: their lack of depth at wide receiver.
Last season, the Patriots’ passing game struggled to find consistency, and it was clear that they needed to add some talent to their receiving corps. But will they be able to fix this weakness before next season?
According to sources close to the team, the Patriots are already working hard to address this issue. Here are a few ways they might fix their weakness at wide receiver.
Free Agency
The Patriots are expected to be big players in free agency this offseason, and they’ll likely target some of the top wide receivers on the market. Some possible targets could include Odell Beckham Jr., JuJu Smith-Schuster, or Will Fuller.
The Draft
The Patriots also have a strong track record of finding talent in the draft, and they might use one of their early picks to select a wide receiver. Some possible draft targets could include Garrett Wilson, Chris Olave, or Jameson Williams.
Trade
The Patriots have also been known to make bold trades to address areas of need, and they might consider dealing for a proven wide receiver. Some possible trade targets could include Deebo Samuel, A.J. Brown, or Courtland Sutton.
One thing is certain: the Patriots will do everything in their power to fix their weakness at wide receiver before next season. And with their strong track record of success, it’s hard to bet against them.
