"The Patriots need juice on the edge. As it stands, the team only added Dre'Mont Jones to a group that ranked 22nd in sacks during the regular season, while it also lost K'Lavon Chaisson and Anfernee Jennings."
"Howell finished with 11.5 sacks and a 13.7% pressure rate in 13 games this season. For the third consecutive season, he had a pass rush grade over 90.0, and he had 25 sacks in that time frame."
The New England Patriots have made notable offseason additions, including Alijah Vera-Tucker, Romeo Doubs, and Dre'Mont Jones. However, they also lost key players like Stefon Diggs and Anfernee Jennings. The team is preparing for the 2026 NFL Draft, particularly focusing on enhancing their edge rusher position. In a mock draft, the Patriots are projected to select Cashius Howell and Gabe Jacas to address their defensive needs, especially after a season where they ranked low in sacks.
