Protect Drake Maye on Draft Day! [Pats Planet Podcast Ep. 2]
As we all know, the New England Patriots have their quarterback of the future — now it’s time to protect him. In Episode 2 of the Pats Planet Podcast, we dive into why offensive line help (left tackle more specifically) should be the top priority heading into the 2025 NFL Draft. No, that may not be breaking news – and I apologize. Drained of draft talk you may be, but don’t act like you’re not excited to see who the Patriot’s take!
Draft aside – Drake Maye showed serious promise in his rookie season, earning a Pro Bowl nod as a replacement and displaying the poise and mobility of a future star. But no matter how talented he is, Maye won’t last long behind a shaky O-line. With the 4th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, the Patriots are in a prime spot to anchor the trenches and lock in long-term protection for Drake Maye.
Should they go with a blue-chip tackle like Will Campbell or Armand Membou? Is there any chance they trade back and stack picks? And how does the signing of Stefon Diggs impact what they do at WR on Day 2?
We break it all down — strategy, names to know, and why protecting Drake could define this entire draft class.
