Patriots‘ director of scouting Eliot Wolf is on the verge of one of the first major moments of his tenure in the New England spotlight.
In many ways, Wolf is acting as the Patriots’ general manager—he has been front and center from a media standpoint, and explained at the scouting combine that he will be the one to make the decision on New England’s picks.
Still, Wolf is not the actual GM, a role that remains unfilled. And with the recent report that team president Jonathan Kraft will be “heavily involved” in the process, fans will probably have questions about the Patriots’ post-Bill Belichick structure.
