NFL Rumors: Patriots Meet With Two Small-School NFL Draft Prospects



GREENSBORO, North Carolina -- The New England Patriots reportedly have their eye on two under-the-radar NFL draft prospects. As part of their pre-draft prep, the Patriots on Monday met with North Carolina A&T offensive tackle Brandon Parker, according to a report from Christian Shanafelt, and worked out Sam Houston State defensive lineman P.J. Hall, league sources told Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle

Parker, who reportedly met with legendary Patriots offensive line coach Dante Scarnecchia, is projected as a fifth- or sixth-round draft pick. He started every game at left tackle over the past three seasons and was a three-time Offensive Lineman of the Year in the MEAC. The Patriots, of course, have a glaring need at left tackle following Nate Solder’s decision to sign with the New York Giants in free agency.

 Hall played his college ball in the Football Championship Subdivision, starring for a Sam Houston squad that reached the national semifinals in three of his four seasons. Listed at 6-foot-1, 310 pounds, he played on the edge for much of his college career before moving inside as a senior and subsequently earning Southland Conference Defensive Player of the Year honors in 2017.
