In a recent mock draft on Fox Sports by David Helman, the Patriots aren't able to choose a top prospect, such as Travis Hunter or Abdul Carter. That leads them to trade down from pick No. 4 to pick No. 6 with the Las Vegas Raiders and select Armand Membou.

The future for the New England Patriots is clear: develop and protect quarterback Drake Maye. The No. 3 pick in the 2024 NFL draft had a promising rookie campaign, although the results, a 3-9 record in 12 starts, weren't quite there yet.
