The Patriots roster overhaul continued this past weekend in the NFL Draft with the addition of 11 new players. Included in that haul were a kicker and a long snapper but the other nine players in the draft class continued the team’s off-season theme of adding toughness, character and most importantly, speed.

There’s seven more players that will forever be able to say they were drafted by the New England Patriots. After adding Will Campbell on Thursday night and TreVeyon Henderson, Kyle Williams and Jared Wilson on Friday, the Patriots maneuvered up and down the board a bit on the final day of the 2025 NFL Draft and came away with four defensive players, a tackle, a long snapper and a kicker….

FOXBOROUGH – Drake Maye’s life on the football field just got a lot safer. As has been the consensus for a while now, the Patriots did in fact take LSU tackle Will Campbell with the fourth overall pick in the NFL Draft on Thursday night. While offensive line isn’t always the sexiest pick, protecting Maye was priority No. 1 in the draft process. Campbell is ready to put his life…
FOXBOROUGH – For the final time until one of the most critical drafts in Patriots history, Mike Vrabel met with the media on Tuesday afternoon to discuss a bunch of different things before it all goes down next week in Green Bay.
