The New England Patriots seem to know they got a good one in the 2024 NFL Draft. With the third pick last April, the Patriots nabbed Drake Maye to be their franchise quarterback. Thankfully, Maye showed a ton of promise in his rookie season,

One of the significant upgrades needed is a star receiver and Sportsnuat's Andrew Buller-Russ has New England making a trade with the Pittsburgh Steelers for star receiver George Pickens.

Teammate Christian Gonzalez called him a superstar, one that could elevate the team to playoff contention as soon as next season. Coach Mike Vrabel listed him as one of the reasons he was interested in taking the job. Former players expressed confidence that the return of offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels will only maximize Maye.

The rookie signal-caller got to throw to some of the best wide receivers in the NFL when participating in the Pro Bowl. That list of standout receivers includes Cincinnati Bengals star wideout Ja’Marr Chase and Jacksonville Jaguars’ Brian Thomas Jr.

The New England Patriots will prioritize finding weapons for Drake Maye this offseason. They could land a young star through a trade with an AFC North team.
