N’Keal Harry and the possibility of a trade: The NFL offseason is beginning to take shape, with free agency set to begin on March 16 and the NFL Draft on the horizon (April 28).
Several blockbuster trades have already been agreed to with a few more potentially in the works.
One name for Patriots fans to keep an eye on is wide receiver N’Keal Harry. Though he hasn’t been able to find the level of production that the Patriots were hoping to see when New England drafted him with the 32nd overall pick in 2019, Harry has shown up on a few teams’ radars.

According to Pro Football Focus reporter Doug Kyed, Harry “is a name to keep an eye on as a potential trade candidate before the draft, per source. Teams have shown recent interest in the 2019 first-round pick.”
Trivia: In N’Keal Harry’s final season at Arizona State, he led the team in receiving yards with 1,088. Who was second?

Hint: He was also a first-round pick, only a year after Harry, and he was selected by an NFC West team.
