How did the New England Patriots fare with their draft selections this year?
After a full 257-pick slate has come and gone, the 2024 NFL Draft has officially been brought to a close, with thecoming out of it with eight new rookies to kick off a new Jerod Mayo-led regime.
But how did New England do through all three days? Here's my grades for each of New England's picks for the 2024 draft:A home run selection for New England. While countless rumors persisted through the pre-draft process, pinning a trade down being in play, the Patriots decided to go the safe route with Drake Maye. The 6-foot-4 Carolina native has all of the tools to become a top signal caller in the NFL but just needs the right development in place to put all of the pieces together.
It could be argued there were a few candidates who would be a better fit or talent than Polk , but the Patriots choosing to add a young reciever for Maye is all I can ask for. Polk's ability as a contested catch threat and route runner is enough to have some solid optimism on what the Washington product can bring to Foxboro.Another move that brought some welcomed help for Maye was the selection of Caedan Wallace to start round three.
Like Wallace, his lengthy experience in college could help him have an instant impact on New England, but after their two selections for the interior in 2023, there's a case this pick could've been utilized elsewhere. The Patriots may not have a pressing need when it comes to their guards, but still, more depth up front is not a poor decision by any means when investing a premium into a fresh face of the franchise at quarterback.
