The Patriots have had a dynasty that just now ended and now turn to the 2020 NFL Draft. How can they get back to where they were just a few seasons ago?

The New England Patriots are one of the most interesting teams to come out of free agency this offseason as we head towards the 2020 NFL Draft. As you probably already know the Patriots do not have a starting quarterback for next season, Tom Brady (the GOAT) has moved on from New England and went to a warmer place down in Florida. Tompa Brady is a real alive.

The Patriots drafted a quarterback in last year’s draft in the fourth-round, Jarrett Stidham. This offseason the Indianapolis Colts decided to release Brian Hoyer, who was the Patriots backup quarterback in the past, decided to sign back with the Patriots to help develop Stidham if the Patriots decide to roll with him week one.

The New England Patriots did not just lose their starting quarterback for the last two decades but they lost their Pro Bowl linebacker duo in Kyle Van Noy and Jamie Collins to free agency. Van Noy is actually going to a team that will play the Patriots two times a year, the Miami and Dolphins and Collins went to a place that has the former Patriots defensive coordinator, Matt Patricia. Collins went to the Detriot Lions.
