The New England Patriots have never been the same since the departure of Tom Brady. With the departure of Bill Belichick this season, the team has transitioned into a new chapter in franchise history. With a new head coach, the team is likely to bring on a new quarterback as well.

The existing combination of Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe has failed to produce the desired results for the Pats.

With options such as Caleb Williams, Drake Maye, Michael Penix, and Jayden Daniels to choose from in the 2024 NFL Draft, the Patriots have the opportunity to bring on fresh talent at the most important position.

At the NFL Combine, the team’s scouts were present and were not spared any chance to meet with the top quarterback prospects in the draft. Prospect Jayden Daniels out of LSU was asked about the possibility of being drafted by the Patriots at his combine presser. 

It'll be dope, obviously growing up and seeing what Tom Brady did there, six Super Bowls. You know, that's stuff to live up to but it'd be dope to come in there and see the success they had and help them get back on that track.

The New England Patriots have the third pick in the 2024 NFL Draft

This year is a first for the Patriots as the team has the 3rd pick in the first round of the Draft, a position the team has not been in for decades.

The team has to make a choice between drafting a quarterback and a wide receiver. The options are tempting because if Marvin Harrison Jr. is available to be drafted at the third pick, then it would be hard to pass on him.

The Chicago Bears and Washington Commanders are teams that are leaning toward drafting a quarterback. Caleb Williams is expected to be the top pick in the draft, and Marvin Harrison Jr. is expected to go soon after. With this, the realistic options available for New England would be Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels, Michael Penix Jr., and J.J. McCarthy. 

Daniels is most certainly looking forward to being drafted by the Patriots; it would be hard to say with certainty if he could be the missing piece the team requires. 

The culture on the team will be different given that there is a new head coach at the helm. Will Jerod Mayo continue the same system and culture that Bill Belichick instituted in the franchise, or will he introduce a new culture altogether?
