Summer is the best time to evaluate dynasty assets and their place in the dynasty market. In this series, we will bring you a riser, faller, and longshot from each NFL team. We’ll cover dynasty values, potential trades, and overall team outlooks.
Let’s jump into the New England Patriots!
To quote C-3PO, “what a desolate place this is.”
The Patriots have one player in the first 91 picks per the current DLF ADP, and that’s rookie TreVeyon Henderson. Second-year quarterback Drake Maye and another rookie in Kyle Williams are next off the board around the century mark, but it’s not until the 121st selection that we see a veteran, non-quarterback in free agent signee Stefon Diggs. Incredibly, 134 picks go by until we see the first non-quarterback who actually played with the team last season in running back Rhamondre Stevenson.
This speaks to one thing, and asserts another. First, not shockingly the Patriots were a fantasy black hole in 2024. Second, it’s nothing but upside, right? Right?

Enter Douglas. While the team’s aerial returns were severely lacking in 2024, the then-sophomore was tied for first on the team in receptions and touchdowns, and second in targets and yards behind tight end Hunter Henry. And though these numbers were meager, they represented an improvement from his rookie campaign, though notably his numbers fell on a per-game efficiency basis.
