Patriots Eye Developmental QB Picks in 2026 Draft

The Patriots, after selecting Drake Maye as their franchise quarterback, will look to add a third quarterback in the 2026 Draft. Head coach Mike Vrabel said the team will seek a young player to develop, potentially adding the new arm to the 53‑man roster or practice squad. Prospects such as Baylor’s senior QB Sawyer Robertson, who finished fifth in FBS passing touchdowns, and Georgia Tech’s Haynes King, a two‑time All‑ACC captain known for his athleticism, are among the candidates the Patriots are evaluating.
