The New England Patriots are looking to boost their edge-rushing corps in the upcoming 2025 NFL Draft, particularly after signing Harold Landry and hoping for a breakout from Keion White. With mixed performances from White, the team needs dependable pass rushers to complement their defense. The draft pool offers a variety of talent, making this an exciting opportunity to improve their defensive lineup.

Among the top ten edge rushers, Abdul Carter from Penn State stands out as a potentially dominant player. With explosive speed and an off-ball linebacker’s instincts, he’s expected to be a future Pro Bowl selection. Other notable prospects include Mykel Williams and Shemar Stewart, both of whom have shown the ability to pressure quarterbacks effectively. The Patriots must analyze fit and potential impact to maximize their draft strategy.
