The Patriots are looking to strengthen their wide receiver lineup and believe Denzel Boston could be a valuable addition.
The Patriots are aiming to trade up from the 31st pick to the 28th pick in the draft.
Denzel Boston is a 6-foot-4 wide receiver from Washington, known for his size and potential impact on the field.
The New England Patriots are expected to make a significant draft trade to acquire Washington wide receiver Denzel Boston. If they don't trade for A.J. Brown, they may move up from the 31st to the 28th pick in the draft.

Many teams across the NFL are closely monitoring whether the Patriots will make a trade for Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown before the NFL draft.
If New England chooses not to pursue a trade for Brown, it may look to move up in the first round of the draft to secure a wide receiver. CBS Sports NFL writer Zachary Pereles released a mock draft on Sunday that suggested the Patriots could trade up from the 31st pick to the 28th spot with the Houston Texans to select Washington wide receiver Denzel Boston.
"The Patriots jump up three spots, sending the Texans picks No. 31 and No. 125, to take Denzel Boston," Pereles wrote. "Boston is a big body at 6-4 and 210 pounds who moves with the skills of a player smaller than that. He can win downfield, and Mike Vrabel will love his willingness to block. Drake Maye gets a major talent here."
Boston played four seasons with Washington, appearing in 43 games and recording 1,781 receiving yards along with 20 touchdowns.
If the Patriots secure Boston, he could be the tall wide receiver they've been after, potentially becoming a key target for Maye.
