Tracking Patriots' UDFA signings after 2026 NFL Draft

The 2026 NFL Draft ending means the New England Patriots will now turn their attention toward the hordes of undrafted rookie free agents floating on the market.

>They did a tremendous job of addressing specific needs in the draft, most notably by trading up to get Utah offensive tackle Caleb Lomu in the first round and Illinois edge rusher Gabe Jacas in the second round. They also came away with the most complete tight end prospect in the entire draft with the No. 95 overall pick, Notre Dame's Eli Raridon.

>However, the team still has work to do when it comes to the overall depth at multiple positions, including linebacker, edge rusher, offensive line, defensive line and safety. They might also continue to look for another wide receiver, but the expectation is that they will agree to a trade for Philadelphia Eagles star wide receiver A.J. Brown on or after June 1.

>With that said, the undrafted rookies are going to have an opportunity to step onto the field and compete for a job. Efton Chism III, Elijah Ponder and even Lan Larison, before the injury, were all undrafted free agents who impressed last season.

>Who will fall into that category this year?

>Patriots Wire has you covered as we track all of the undrafted rookie free agents who end up signing with New England.
