The New England Patriots have stockpiled the assets necessary to attack the many holes on their roster through free agency

This is a Patriots team that needs help on both sides of the ball. It’s already clear they have major needs at edge rusher, offensive tackle and wide receiver when entering the 2025 NFL draft. They managed to address all three areas right off the bat in our latest mock draft.

Campbell was named a consensus All-American in 2024, but some around the league question whether his arm length will deter teams and cause him to slip in the draft. ESPN’s Mel Kiper — who has the Patriots selecting Abdul Carter in his first mock draft — has Campbell going to the Chicago Bears with the 10th pick.
