The New England Patriots could go in a bunch of different directions with the No. 14 overall pick of the 2023 NFL draft, but considering the current state of things, the cornerback position could use some serious help right now.
Of course, they could mitigate the chances of any desperation moves by going out and signing one of the many available free agent cornerbacks expected to hit the open market.
That list includes veteran corner Jonathan Jones, who could be on the verge of playing outside of New England for the first time in his career.
One thing is certain: The Patriots have other areas to address on the roster outside of cornerback, including offensive tackle and wide receiver. It would be a huge weight lifted if they managed to come away with a veteran playmaker, especially if they lose Jones.
Here are the available cornerbacks set to hit the market.
