"The New England Patriots have undergone a massive cultural and performance metamorphosis over the past year, and a good part of the credit should go to their much-maligned owner, Robert Kraft. Kraft rebounded from five years of dreadful decision-making to get two major things right. One was insisting that the Patriots draft quarterback Drake Maye. The other, while it may have been a year late was his hiring of Mike Vrabel. Now, Kraft notes that the quality he likes best in Maye is his humility."
"He rebuilt the offensive line to the tune of four new starters. He added four new receivers who could actually catch the ball. And he drafted an explosive running back who ripped off four touchdown runs of over 50 yards, TreVeyon Henderson. He also brought in better players at every level of his defense to complete Phase One of the makeover. It was a masterful offseason."
Robert Kraft rebounded from five years of poor decision-making by insisting the Patriots draft quarterback Drake Maye and by hiring Mike Vrabel. Those choices set the foundation for the 2025 AFC East title and helped prompt Vrabel to join the team. Vrabel immediately built an offense around Maye, reconstructing the offensive line with four new starters, adding four reliable receivers, and drafting explosive running back TreVeyon Henderson. He upgraded personnel across the defense to complete Phase One of the makeover. Drake Maye has performed at a high level, and Robert Kraft highlights Maye’s humility as a key trait.
