Patriots mock draft 2026: Final 7-round projection and analysis
In my final mock draft of the cycle, the New England Patriots get aggressive. Here, they move up twice in the first two rounds to secure two players they have been tied to in the process. In this mock, we’ll also add the caveat of a future trade for A.J. Brown. In this world, the […]

How Patriots’ 2026 NFL Draft capital compares to the rest of the league
In his first two years after taking over as head of the New England Patriots’ personnel department, Eliot Wolf had a fairly simple job in the first round of the NFL Draft. All he had to do was make the obvious choice, a task made even easier by his team’s position: the Patriots were third […]

On paper, the New England Patriots interior offensive line for the 2026 season seems set.

Patriots 2026 big board: 50 best fits for New England in the NFL Draft
The last two years, the New England Patriots entered the NFL Draft with relatively little intrigue surrounding them. In 2023, quarterback was the big need and Drake Maye the expected selection very much throughout the process. A year later, it was all about left tackle and in particular Will Campbell. The difference between those drafts […]

Patriots trade rumors: Kayshon Boutte on the trade block?
Time, as they say, is a flat circle. Just ask New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte, who for a second straight offseason finds himself the target of trade speculation.

Patriots might be the least predictable team in the 2026 NFL Draft
The last two years, there was not a whole lot of mystery surrounding the New England Patriots entering the NFL Draft. In 2024, it was pretty clear that they would go quarterback, and Drake Maye was the frontrunner and eventual pick at No. 3 overall. In 2025, offensive tackle was the main need on the […]
