ESPN Poses Biggest Question To Be Answered For Patriots

The New England Patriots brought so many new players to the roster. Head coach Bill Belichick is not someone who spends too much money in free agency. However, he changed his approach and spent a big chunk of the cap space to sign the best players on the market. He signed guys like Hunter Henry and Jonnu Smith. What else could you ask for? Cam Newton got a one-year deal with the team. Yes, Belichick decided to give him a second chance. Well, guess what… ESPN set up the biggest question related to the Patriots. We know a lot of people who’d ask the same.

“Who is the quarterback of the future?” Patriots beat writer Mike Reiss wrote. “For all the moves the Patriots made, and no team had more, they still have a level of uncertainty at QB. That could be answered in the draft, although picking at No. 15 — and with the 49ers shaking things up with their big trade up to No. 3 with a quarterback in mind — there’s no guarantee the Patriots will find their answer, unless they make their own bold move up the board. For now, Cam Newton is the projected starter for 2021, and Jimmy Garoppolo could be in play in 2022 (if not sooner).”

ESPN, NFL experts can’t answer the biggest question about the Patriots

Newton got a second chance and the Patriots also have Jarrett Stidham. NFL experts are still worried about Newton’s role with the team.

Take a look at the San Francisco 49ers. They have Jimmy Garoppolo under center and moved up in the first round. Belichick wouldn’t give up elite assets for one player. However, he may have to make some changes in the near future.

Belichick has to address the most important question. He will have to make a decision on the next franchise quarterback. Maybe he will draft a player and turn him into Tom Brady. TB12 left the Patriots after 20 years. This year’s draft has a lot of great options for the team. Who is coming to New England?
