Mailbag: Could New England Patriots Trade Up? | Arizona Cardinals Deal?

New England Patriots weigh bold draft trades—could “their guy” be worth the price? With Eliot Wolf signaling a willingness to make major moves, speculation heats up around potential draft-day climbs and eye-catching trade scenarios.

Brown—Wolf could pursue via trade, including Kayvon Thibodeaux and Davante Adams.
