The New England Patriots have finally completed the 2026 NFL Draft, with nine draft picks who immediately fill the biggest holes the roster had going into the weekend. It's a big win for the team in all aspects, as they managed to get some really talented players on board.
That will be the biggest takeaway of the weekend, especially since this year's draft class didn't one that got the analysts and experts all that excited.
For New England, that's a golden time to find a diamond in the rough, as they have historically done successfully over the past two decades, and the hope is they continue that tradition going into the upcoming season.
They have already addressed their neediest positions with their draft choices, and now they'll have a chance to add even more depth with those who were overlooked over the past few days.
Running list of Patriots undrafted free agent signings
Last updated: April 25 @ 9:45 pm EST
Jacob Rizy - OT, Florida State/Harvard
Sticking with the emphasis of this year's draft, it's unsurprising to see another offensive lineman signed to the roster. The Florida State alum is known for his athleticism, especially for his size, and has the versatility to line up at guard or center.
He provides the offense with even more depth at some of the weakest positions on the team.
Kyle Dixon - WR, Culver-Stockton
Because they didn't pick a single wide receiver over the three-day draft, Eliot Wolf decided it was time to bring one in as an undrafted free agent.
The first to be signed is Culver-Stockton's Kyle Dixon, a 6-foot-2, 220-pound playmaker who recorded 143 passes for 2,394 yards and 24 touchdowns in 22 games with the Wildcats.
