The 2024 NFL Draft is in the books, and the New England Patriots were quite busy. Originally entering with 71 players on the roster — leaving 19 spots open for draft selections as well as rookie free agents — the team filled eight of those through the draft. Substantial change was coming from the first round on Thursday night on. In order not to get lost, and to find out where the new players fit onto the roster, please make sure to regularly revisit this regularly updated Patriots depth chart.

The expectation was that all three of those positions would be addressed early in the draft, with the QB spot the first domino to fall: New England selected North Carolina passer Drake Maye with the third overall pick in the first round. The team later went after those other positions, too, picking a pair of wide receivers capable of lining up on the perimeter (Ja’Lynn Polk, Javon Baker) as well as a developmental offensive tackle with starter upside on the left side (Caedan Wallace). In total, eight draft picks were invested during the three-day event. Source: https://www.patspulpit.com/2024/4/25/24 ... draft-2024
