ESPN's new 2025 mock draft predicts Patriots take Colorado's Travis Hunter originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
The New England Patriots need a major infusion of high-end talent at many different positions on their roster ahead of the 2025 NFL Draft, but one thing they don't need is a quarterback.
Drake Maye made his first career start last week against the Houston Texans and gave an encouraging performance in a 41-21 loss. He completed 21-of-33 pass attempts for 243 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions.
While it's still too early to determine if Maye will become a legitimate franchise quarterback for the Patriots, it makes no sense to draft a QB in the first round next year.
