The Patriots entered the 2024 NFL Draft with three sizable vacancies on their roster at quarterback, wide receiver, and offensive tackle.
New England addressed its most pressing need on Thursday, taking UNC QB Drake Maye with the No. 3 pick in the draft.
The following day, the Patriots bolstered the rest of their offensive unit — selecting Washington WR Ja’Lynn Polk in the second round (No. 37 overall) before taking Penn State OT Caedan Wallace in the following round (No. 68 overall).
According to ESPN’s Mike Reiss, this marks the first time that the Patriots used their first three picks in a draft on offense since 2006.
