Latest news and updates about the Patriots
Time, as they say, is a flat circle. Just ask New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte, who for a second straight offseason finds himself the target of trade speculation. According to a report by NFL insider Jordan Schultz, Boutte is “a name that has come up in trade talks” and that teams “believe he […]
The last two years, there was not a whole lot of mystery surrounding the New England Patriots entering the NFL Draft. In 2024, it was pretty clear that they would go quarterback, and Drake Maye was the frontrunner and eventual pick at No. 3 overall. In 2025, offensive tackle was the main need on the […]

For many football fans, the NFL draft is the THE event of the NFL offseason. It makes perfect sense. In Economics, we teach students about the concept of opportunity costs. Essentially, it is the idea that there are infinite possibilities, but each team can only make finite choices. So, the most exciting time is the […]
Sitting at No. 31 in the NFL Draft, the New England Patriots might be looking at limited options in the first round. However, they are not afraid to make a move up the board either if an opportunity presents itself. Obviously, that opportunity would be closely tied to which players are available; there are only […]
What has long been expected was underscored once again on Monday morning with NFL insider Adam Schefter leading his “2026 NFL draft intel” ESPN column by reporting that the Philadelphia Eagles are likely trading A.J. Brown to the New England Patriots in June. Here’s exactly what Schefter had to say (bold emphasis mine): No matter […]
Update 4/20/2026: A.J. Brown ‘likely to become a Patriot’ after June 1, per report After his colleague Ian Rapoport of NFL Network mentioned last week that wide receiver A.J. Brown getting traded from the Philadelphia Eagles to the New England Patriots is “probably the most likely scenario,” ESPN’s Adam Schefter echoed those remarks on Monday. […]
It’s draft week, which means we’ll soon be writing draft grades articles instead of mock draft articles. However, there’s still time for one last mock. I went for upside on this one, but I think you’ll like it. Give it a read and let me know what you think in the comments. As a reminder, […]
The New England Patriots are about to begin their preparation for the 2026 season. On Monday, players are invited to Gillette Stadium to begin the offseason workout program. The first phase will focus exclusively on strength and conditioning work and like most of the program is voluntary to attend. Nonetheless, the expectation is that a […]
The 2026 NFL Draft is less than 10 days away as the New England Patriots continue the process of finishing their board. Things will look quite different for the team this draft picking 31st overall after back-to-back years selecting in the top-five. Cornerback is not expected to be a major need as New England returns […]

Down the stretch we go!
The NFL offseason ebbs and flows, and after a few relatively quiet weeks a big one awaits. On Thursday, the 2026 draft will kick off in Pittsburgh, and it will be an opportunity for the New England Patriots to add to a roster that already won them a division title and earned them a Super […]
When looking solely at the starters, the New England Patriots might have the best cornerback group in the NFL. Christian Gonzalez is at the very least a top three player at the position, whose efforts single-handedly kept the team in the Super Bowl for as long as it was, while Carlton Davis and Marcus Jones […]
Before a drop off in the playoffs, Hunter Henry was arguably the New England Patriots’ most reliable offensive skill position player during the 2025 season. But while he is set to return for a sixth season with the organization, it very well is in the market for more options at tight end: heading toward the […]
The New England Patriots are set to be featured on the HBO documentary series Hard Knocks in 2027, which will give viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the team (and new training facility) throughout training camp. Head coach Mike Vrabel had a rather straightforward response when asked for his reaction. “Can’t wait,” he said sarcastically. Patritos […]
When we think of prototypical New England Patriots, not only are we looking at the player, but often the background as well. The perfect encapsulation of a Patriot is someone who may have been overlooked or counted out for some reason or another, whether that is because of size, injury history, and any other factor. […]
The DBN Community NFL Mock Draft has reached the end of the first round, but we’re not quite done yet! We’ll still have one more post in which we “jump back” to when the Browns pick in the second and third rounds. We are releasing four picks at a time in one post to give […]
Even though the NFL Draft is less than a week away, one of the most widely circulated stories in the league these days is the recently-emerged photos of New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel and reporter Dianna Russini at an adults-only resort Arizona.

The New England Patriots are heading toward the 2026 NFL Draft with defensive edge high up on their list of needs. It’s not that they are lacking a starter — Harold Landry and Dre’Mont Jones are the top two at the moment — but that they definitely could use some youth and developmental upside to […]

The 2026 NFL Draft is less than 10 days away as the New England Patriots continue the process of finishing their board.

Speaking to reporters earlier this week, New England Patriots executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf gave some insight into the state of the linebacker class in this year’s NFL Draft. While he didn’t sound overly excited about the group, he did point out that there would be plenty of talent in the late-round […]
