The 2025 NFL Draft is exactly 100 days away, giving the New England Patriots a little over three months to find the best prospects to surround new head coach Mike Vrabel. The Patriots finished this past season ranked 30th in points on offense and 22nd on defense. New England routinely lost in the trenches with pass block and pass rush units that ranked among the worst in the league, and poor receiving on offense and inconsistent play at the second level on defense only exacerbated the issues in the trenches. The 2025 draft will be a key one. New England must balance building around Drake Maye with fixing a broken defense and finding talent that fits the new head coach. Here’s my first 7-round mock of the cycle looking at some players who could fill those roles.

Oregon
Florida
