Former NFL wide receiver Aaron Dobson ripped the New England Patriots in a series of tweets Thursday hours before the first round of the 2020 NFL Draft was set to take place.

The Patriots selected Dobson with the No. 59 overall pick of the 2013 draft. He played in 24 games before he was cut prior to the start of the 2016 season.
