Patriots best fits at Utility positions.

These names I have had of possible draft picks. NFL free agents are more time consuming for special teamers and utility players. Here are the 2020 draft Prospects and Best fits for the Patriots. These  three positions will most likely be 7th round undrafted signings. Thus I am not going to take time to write a full report of each player.

Half Back - Special Teamers:

Tra Minter South Alabama

Art Thompkins UConn

Jason Huntley New Mexico St

Dre Brown Illinois

Maurice Thomas Miami Ohio

Gerold Bright Utah ST

AJ Hines Duquesne

Tracy James Abilene Christian

Sewo Olonilua TCU

Fullbacks:

Spencer Nigh Auburn

Dayton Furuta Hawaii

Kelvin Smith North Texas

Kicker:

Johnathan Song TCU

Rodrigo Blankenship Georgia

Jake Koehnke Air Force

Sam Sloman Miami Ohio

If signed these guys would be camp battles and projected practice squad players. While I think Bolden, Burkhead, Devlin, Johnson, and Gostkowski could lose their jobs to these players. The importance of acquiring them is rather low when the Patriots have needs at tight end, defensive line, linebacker, and Quarterback, that are all more pressing.

New England's 2020 Defense and special Teams Prospects

The Patriots have a lot of good players on free agency and a lot of holes to fill. If the team wants to stay competitive in 2020, they must reload where they can. The good thing is the Patriots is stacked at the secondary. 

The Patriots will lose their interior defensive line and most of their linebacking core. The pass rush from the edge could also use some upgrades. Here are some players the Patriots might pursue.

Defensive Lineman: Ross Blacklock TCU, Davon Hamilton Ohio St, Raequan Williams Michigan St, Tyler Clark Georgia, Benito Jones Ole Miss, Mike Panasuik Michigan St, Josiah Coatney Ole Miss, Darrion Daniels Nebraska, McTelvin Agim Arkansas, Bravvion Roy Baylor

Edge Rusher: Darrell Taylor Tennessee, Kenny Willekes Michigan St, Alton Robertson Syracuse, Jabari Zuniga Florida, Nick Coe Auburn, Marlon Davidson Auburn, Johnathan Garvin Miami, Trevis Gipson Tulsa, Oluwole Betiku Illinois, Jonathan Greenard Florida

Line Backers: Malika Harrison Ohio St, Justin Strnad Wake Forest, Markus Bailey Purdue, Mohammed Barry Nebraska, Shaquille Quarterman Miami, Mykal Walker Fresno St, Cameron Brown Penn St, Francis Bernard Utah, Logan Wilson Wyoming, Marcel Spears Iowa St, Caleb Kelly Oklahoma

As I said earlier the Patriots are stacked in the secondary but are at risk of losing Mccourty, Ebner, and Bethel. They may actually cut the other Mccourty to save some cap space. Whether it's via the draft or the undrafted free agent process, the team normally excels in this department. Here are some players Steve Belichick can mold into prime time players.

Corner-Defensive Backs: Lamar Jackson Nebraska, Jaron Bryant Fresno St, Levonta Taylor Florida St, Reggie Robinson Tulsa, Elijah Riley Army, Tino Ellis Maryland, Kevin McGill Eastern Michigan, Christopher Fredrick Syracuse, Kamren Curl Arkansas, Dane Jackson Pitt, Alvin Davis Akron

Safety-Defensive Backs: Julian Blackmon Utah, Jeremy Chinn S. Illinois, K'Von Wallace Clemson, Antonie Brooks Maryland, Reggie Floyd Virginia Tech, Brian Cole Mississippi St, Nigel Warrior Tennessee, Tanner Muse Clemson, Jaylinn Hawkins California, Blake Furguson LSU, Steve Wirtel Iowa St

Everything is a guessing game for the Patriots. Nobody knows what Belichick is going to do. I got a few names right last year, although Ken Webster turned out to be a waste of a draft pick.  Only time will tell what the 2020 New England Patriots will look like.
