The Patriots stood firm and didn’t move their No. 3 pick on Thursday — opting to take a potential franchise quarterback in Drake Maye.
But with several other QB-needy teams on the prowl, it seems like Patriots de-facto GM Eliot Wolf had several intriguing offers on the table before sticking with Maye.
According to Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer, the Patriots rejected offers from both the New York Giants and Minnesota Vikings — which included 2025 first-round picks — that were submitted in order to try to trade up to No. 3 and select Maye.
