Patriots' Undrafted Sleeper Could Shine
Description
Elijah Ponder, the undrafted sleeper at edge rusher, quietly made his mark last season with 24 tackles and 4 sacks in 15 games while also contributing on special teams. While names like DreMont Jones, Harold Landry, and second-round pick Gabe Jacas dominate the conversation, insiders are buzzing about Ponder’s potential — with some even suggesting the Patriots brass sees him as a breakout candidate. With Jacas reportedly struggling and Landry aging, Ponder could seize more snaps and surprise everyone. Training camp in late July will be the real test — if he shows up ready to perform, he might just be the unexpected X-factor on New England’s defense.
