As the Patriots sit in a strong position to strike in free agency and in the trade market, they’ve been speculated to be a potential landing spot for a handful of top players. Oddsmakers believe that’s the case as well, listing the Patriots as the favorite or one of the favorites to land several of the top available players this offseason.
To help address this, new head coach Mike Vrabel could oversee a free agent addition. And while the projected free agent class at wide receiver is not expected to be very deep, there are a few possibilities for New England. One is former Super Bowl champion Chris Godwin.
It was announced that former New England Patriots offensive linemen Shaq Mason is going to be released by the Houston Texans, and a homecoming could be in order.
