7. Mohamed Sanu, Patriots (ADP: 212nd overall)
It’s anyone’s guess as to how the Patriots’ receiver position will shake out after Julian Edelman. Sanu will be in competition with N’Keal Harry, Jakobi Meyers, Damiere Byrd, Gunner Olszewski and undrafted wideout Jeff Thomas. But there’s a clear pecking order to start, with Sanu sitting at No. 2. The Patriots will want him to succeed after giving up a second-round pick and while they’re paying him $6.5 million in salary.
New England will probably give him every opportunity to succeed, and it seems Cam Newton and Sanu got off to a good start, with the two players working out together in L.A. after the Patriots signed the former Carolina Panthers quarterback.
