"Gabe Jacas offers pure power as a pass rusher, racking up 11 sacks last year, with 6.5 in the final four games of the season. His power has made him a productive college player at a Power 4 school, making him a potential first-round selection for the Patriots."
"Derrick Moore is another productive Big Ten edge rusher projected in the first two rounds. His performance in college has drawn attention, making him a viable option for the Patriots as they look to bolster their edge rusher position."
The New England Patriots are preparing for the 2026 NFL Draft, focusing on enhancing their edge rusher position. Key players returning include Harold Landry, Elijah Ponder, and Bradyn Swinson, with Dre'Mont Jones added to replace K'Lavon Chaisson. Potential edge defenders include Keldric Faulk, R Mason Thomas, and Cashius Howell. Gabe Jacas from Illinois is highlighted as a strong candidate, having recorded 11 sacks last season. Derrick Moore from Michigan is also noted as a productive option. The Patriots may need to trade up to secure Jacas if they pursue other positions at No. 31.
