He also posted 36 tackles, four interceptions and 11 passes defended playing cornerback, and his efforts landed him the Heisman Trophy.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_kyvfmdt24\">The 21-year-old is widely viewed as a generational talent and could very well be off the board before the Patriots even pick at No. 4, but if he is available, you would have to think New England would jump at the opportunity to nab him.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_jjqfkefot\">Perhaps the Pats like Hunter so much and are so convinced he is going to be a superstar that they feel they don&#8217;t even need to send many reps to watch him?<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_k23z1iu72\">Seems unlikely, but maybe Vrabel just operates under the belief that you don&#8217;t need a ton of executives in the building to watch one player.<\/p>\n<p data-mm-id=\"_9ac7da02o\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The New England Patriots have been endlessly linked to Colorado Buffaloes superstar Travis Hunter, as they own the fourth pick in the NFL Draft and Hunter may b<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":19682,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-19681","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-england-patriots"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
