It's April 4th.

Welcome in.

This is NFL News Today, where football meets AI.

Patriots fans, the squad's eyeing a defensive boost with their 31st pick in the 2026 NFL

draft.

Coming off that Super Bowl run last season, they're predicted to grab Georgia Linebacker

CJ Allen, according to NFL.com, analyst Chad Reuter.

The team could chase knees elsewhere, or just snag the top talent on the board.

Reuter sees Allen as the perfect fit to anchor the middle of new.

England's defense.

Allen's a three-year bulldog who's built like a leader, racking up 88 tackles last season,

along with four pass breakups, 3.5, sacks, and two forced fumbles.

Folks say he gets stepped right in as a starter, and even call the plays.

With 11 total picks this draft, set for April 23rd through 25th in Pittsburgh, the

paths have amilled to rebuild smart.

This mock has everyone buzzing about how Allen might elevate that defense even further

as they chase another ring.
