The New England Patriots may be in the market to select Maryland cornerback Deonte Banks at some point in the draft.
Banks was a four-year player for Maryland. He recorded 83 tackles and two interceptions during his collegiate run. He had his best season in 2022, when he recorded 38 tackles and half a sack in 12 games played. He also tallied an interception.
Corner is a position the Patriots could use help at for depth and playmaking ability. Banks has both of those capabilities. He was a 2022 All-Big Ten honorable mention. That was the culmination of a great run for a player who made an impact as soon as he got to the campus. He appeared in 11 games with eight starts as a freshman in 2019.
