Patriots Roster Strengths and Depth Woes | New England Patriots News

The Patriots’ 53-man roster looks promising on paper, especially with A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs leading a revamped wide receiver corps, while running back, defensive line, and safety are solid. But the real concern? Depth at edge rusher and linebacker — if injuries strike, it could be trouble. Their pass rush remains underwhelming, and behind the starters, the backups aren’t up to par for a contender. Drafting has been shaky — only QB Drake Maye from the 2024 class made the cut, while eight of nine 2026 draft picks stayed. Practice squad moves could still shake things up, with players like Jam Miller possibly returning to Foxboro. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
