A potential first-round pick is in Foxboro on Wednesday.
According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, the Patriots are hosting Texas offensive tackle Connor Williams. He's expected to be taken in the first or second round, and with the Patriots having four picks in the top 63 overall, he seems like a reasonable option for them.
New England appears to still be searching for Nate Solder's long-term replacement at left tackle, and Williams is one of a few players in the draft who could be it.
Williams didn't have the best year last year, but much of that was related to injury.
Pro Football Focus has Williams ranked as the second-best tackle in the draft, behind Notre Dame's Mike McGlinchey.
