Instant grades for Patriots trading Marte Mapu to Texans
The New England Patriots were ready to release Marte Mapu on Tuesday, but the move never materialized. The 26-year-old will still be playing elsewhere in 2026: instead of getting cut by the Patriots, the team reached an agreement with the Houston Texans for a trade. The Patriots will send Mapu and a 2027 seventh-round draft […]

Patriots draft target: WR Chris Bell scouting report, bio, NFL outlook
Following the release of Stefon Diggs and free agency addition of Romeo Doubs this offseason, the future of the New England Patriots wide receiver position remains unclear.

Mock draft 2026: Patriots double-dip in second round
In my third mock draft of the cycle, the New England Patriots work the draft board a bit. With most major needs already filled in free agency, they have the flexibility to do so and trade down or up depending on how the board falls. Drafting for talent rather than need is something Mike Vrabel […]
Patriots draft target: LB Red Murdock scouting report, bio, outlook
The New England Patriots under head coach Mike Vrabel are all about culture, and their success in 2025 proved them right. One of the key elements of that culture is effort, and there are multiple players in this year’s draft that fit the bill in that regard. Among them is linebacker Red Murdock out of […]
Patriots draft target: TE Eli Stowers scouting report, bio, outlook
In the traditional definition, a tight end is equal parts blocker and equal parts receiver. Over the years and with the NFL becoming increasingly pass-centric, that definition started to evolve. These days, tight ends are more nuanced as a group. While you still have your traditional all-around options, you also have more specialized skillsets now: […]
Patriots survey results: Fans share thoughts on 18-game regular season
The NFL switched to 17 regular season games back in 2021. An 18th may soon be coming. Expanding the regular season was a popular topic at the NFL annual league meetings held last week in Arizona. One that Patriots Owner Robert Kraft was in favor of. “I like it long term for the growth and […]
5 quarterback fits for the Patriots in the 2026 NFL Draft
The 2026 NFL Draft is less than three weeks away and the New England Patriots continue the process of finishing their board.

Patriots draft target: OT Blake Miller scouting report, bio, outlook
One year ago, the New England Patriots used their first-round selection in the NFL Draft to pick an offensive tackle. Fast forward 12 months, and we might find ourselves in the same situation yet again. What gives? While Will Campbell was brought aboard fourth overall last season to become the team’s left tackle of the […]
Patriots 2026 draft: Good and bad of WR class, according to NFL scouts
The New England Patriots’ wide receiver group remains a work in progress, which in turn means that the reigning AFC champions are in the market for more help at the position. And while A.J. Brown has been floated around as a potential trade addition, the NFL Draft is no less likely to be the team’s […]
Patriots draft target: WR De’Zhaun Stribling scouting report, bio, outlook
Even though the New England Patriots spent top dollar on Romeo Doubs this offseason, the future of their wide receiver position remains unclear. Kayshon Boutte, DeMario Douglas and Mack Hollins are all entering the final year of their contracts, while Kyle Williams has yet to show he is capable of filling a more prominent role […]
Harold Landry injury update: Patriots optimistic about star defender
Harold Landry was one of the New England Patriots’ biggest free agency signings of 2025, but a nagging knee injury limited his impact down the stretch. Heading into his second season with the organization, however, there is optimism about his outlook. Landry has been a regular at the Patriots’ Gillette Stadium facility over recent weeks, […]
Sunday Patriots Notes: Mike Vrabel gives insight into draft strategy
The calendar has turned from March to April, which means that the 2026 NFL Draft is drawing ever so close. For the New England Patriots it is one they will try to use to further strengthen their position as a Super Bowl contender: depth needs to be improved, holes need to be plugged, the future […]
Patriots draft target: TE Justin Joly scouting report, bio, outlook
On paper, it appears the New England Patriots are in solid shape at tight end. Hunter Henry was one of their most reliable players in 2025; Julian Hill was recently added on a three-year contract; Jack Westover offers positional flexibility; C.J. Dippre and Marshall Lang provide developmental depth. However, tight end might be one of […]
Patriots schedule for 2026 offseason workout program set
The New England Patriots will return to work later this month to kick off their offseason workout program. As was announced by the league on Friday, the Patriots will start workouts on April 20.

Patriots’ Lan Larison outlines goals for 2026 sophomore season
Lan Larison’s first season in the NFL was over before it really even started.

Patriots fan survey: How do you feel about an 18-game season?
The NFL annual meeting was held earlier this week, and one of the talking points coming out was the league’s intentions to move to an 18-game regular season. Among the people advocating for such a change was New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft. “I like it long term for the growth and development of the […]
Stephon Gilmore, former Patriots Super Bowl champion, retires
Stephon Gilmore was an integral member of the New England Patriots’ last championship, sealing the team’s win over the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LIII with a fourth-quarter interception. That play marked one of many highlights in a 13-year NFL career that has now found its end. As he announced on Thursday, Gilmore is […]
Patriots draft target: ED Romello Height scouting report, bio, outlook
As both executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf and head coach Mike Vrabel said at the NFL Combine, the edge position is one of the biggest needs for the New England Patriots. Even after signing Dre’Mont Jones to a three-year deal on the first day of free agency, that remains true. Jones is […]
