2024 Projections
The Patriots selected Wells in the sixth round of the 2015 NFL Draft, 178th overall.
ANALYSIS
Wells is extremely fast for a linebacker (4.43 40-yard dash), but he didn't do much on Mississippi State's defense last year and is badly undersized at 222 pounds. This is presumably a special teams pick.
