Overview

• The Patriots hold the No. 4 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, set to begin at 8 p.m. EDT on April 24.
• New England has nine total draft selections, including multiple third-round picks acquired via trades in recent years.
• After a 4–13 season in 2024, the team is focused on rebuilding under new head coach Mike Vrabel and second-year quarterback Drake Maye.
• Free-agent signings like Stefon Diggs and Morgan Moses have strengthened the roster, but offensive tackle and wide receiver remain top draft priorities.
• Analysts expect the Patriots to target blue-chip offensive talent early in the draft to solidify protection and weapons for Maye.
