The 2026 NFL Draft concluded last week, but it’s always intriguing to look ahead at potential targets for the 2027 NFL Draft.
Recently, ESPN’s Jordan Reid released a mock draft for 2027, predicting the Patriots to select Indiana wide receiver Nick Marsh with the 25th overall pick.
“A transfer from Michigan State, Marsh is set to assume Omar Cooper Jr.’s role in Indiana’s offense. Although he’s bigger than Cooper at 6-foot-3, 203 pounds, Marsh plays like the Jets’ first-rounder and is best deployed in the short to intermediate area as a strong, in-breaking route runner,” Reid wrote on Thursday.
“Marsh is competitive in getting yards after the catch and plays with the feeling he can score every time he gets the ball. Receivers Mack Hollins and Kayshon Boutte are set to become free agents, so Marsh could be a good match with New England.”
There’s a chance that New England won’t have a first-round pick in 2027 because it could be part of a deal with the Eagles for receiver A.J. Brown. Even if the Patriots trade for Brown and manage to keep their 2027 first-round pick, it’s likely they won’t target a receiver with their first-round selection. Instead, they’ll probably focus on a different position.
