See what the experts had to say about the Patriots second and third round draft picks from the 2025 NFL Draft.

Round 2, Pick 38: TreVeyon Henderson, RB - Ohio State

Michael Dussault, Patriots.com: Henderson should contribute immediately as a change-of-pace back and third-down option, and bring an element of needed explosiveness to an evolving Patriots offense.

Evan Lazar, Patriots.com: The #Patriots have selected Ohio State RB TreVeyon Henderson with the 38th overall pick. Henderson is an explosive weapon in the run and pass game. No. 18 on my big board.

I see shades of Breece Hall and Jahmyr Gibbs.

Jordan Schultz, FOX Sports: Drake Maye's new best friend...

Adam Schefter, ESPN: At pick No. 38, the Patriots select Ohio St. RB TreVeyon Henderson. Two Ohio State RBs go two picks apart in round two.

Ian Rapoport, NFL Network: The #Patriots at No. 38 take #OSU RB TreVeyon Henderson, one of new/old OC Josh McDaniels is said to have a ton of love for.
@MoveTheSticks has called him the best pass-protecting RB in years.

Brian Hines, Pats Pulpit: Henderson was my favorite back entering the day. Home-run speed, explosiveness, weapon in the passing game, awesome in pass pro.

Mike Reiss, ESPN:

The Patriots select Ohio State RB TreVeyon Henderson with their second-round pick (No. 38).

🏈 5-foot-10, 202 pounds

🏈 4.43 in the 40

🏈 1,016 yards, averaging 7.1 avg. per carry in 2024

🏈 27 catches for 284 yards in 2024

🏈 48 career TDs

Mark Daniels, MassLive: With pick 38, the Patriots draft Ohio State RB TreVeyon Henderson. Really good running back. Henderson ran for 1,016 yards with 10 touchdowns last season. He also caught 27 passes for 284 yards. The Patriots RB is stacked with Rhamondre Stevenson, Antonio Gibson and Henderson.

Ari Meirov, The 33rd Team: An all-around back, Henderson excels as a runner, receiver, and pass protector — he truly does it all. Another perfect Mike Vrabel player.

Jerry Thornton, Barstool Sports: TreVeyon Henderson had 7.1 YPA. And 0 fumbles

Jon Gruden, Barstool Sports: New England just got themselves a great running back and an even better guy!! Good luck with the Patriots, TreVeyon!

Albert Breer, NBC Sports Boston: Head coach Mike Vrabel, college scouting director Cam Williams, and VP of Football Operations and Strategy John Streicher are Ohio State alums, and have a ton of institutional knowledge on the national champs. Henderson's a fun weapon for Josh McDaniels.

Robert Griffin III, NFL Analyst: TreVeyon Henderson scares defenses time he touches the ball. This is something the New England Patriots desperately needed in their offensive attack. He is a physical pass protector as well. A++ pick for Drake Maye's development and his offense scoring points.

Round 3, Pick 69: Kyle Williams, WR - Washington State

Mike Dussault, Patriots.com: Williams is a fast receiver who knows how to get open, traits that will fit in well into the Patriots wide receiver room. He should bring a needed element of explosiveness to the group.

Evan Lazar, Patriots.com: Kyle Williams, YOU are a Patriot.

Alex Barth, 98.5 The Sports Hub: Kyle Williams was a late riser in the process but a super fun player. Explosive, can separate at all three levels and is dangerous with the ball in his hands. I think Stefon Diggs will be a great influence on him.

Older (turns 23 in Nov), late-breakout prospect might limit ceiling, but he should be able to step in a be a playmaker right away.

Mike Giardi, The Boston Sports Journal: Kyle Williams, welcome to New England.

Jordan Schultz, Fox Sports: Washington State WR Kyle Williams to the #Patriots.

The league's worst kept secret has been that every team loves Williams. Sensational after the catch. Another weapon for Drake Maye.

Adam Schefter, ESPN: At pick No. 69, the Patriots selected Washington State WR Kyle Williams.

Ian Rapoport, NFL Network: Nice.

Mike Reiss, ESPN:

The Patriots select Washington State WR Kyle Williams with their initial third-round pick (No. 69):

🏈 Pre-draft visitor to Gillette

🏈 5-foot-10, 190 pounds

🏈 4.4 in 40-yard dash

🏈 70 catches for 1,198 yards (17.1 avg.), w/ 14 TDs in 2024

🏈 Downfield threat; accelerates

Ari Meirov, The 33rd Team:

Patriots draft:

Round 1: LT Will Campbell

Round 2: RB TreVeyon Henderson

Round 3: WR Kyle Williams

Drake Maye = 😀😀😀

Taylor Kyles, CLNS: Kyle Williams was lower on Consensus Boards than Jaylin Noel, but I think Williams can live outside more than Noel due to his excellent releases

And while Williams is thin, he's tougher and more physical than you'd expect

Phil Perry, NBC Sports Boston: Patriots are taking Washington State receiver Kyle Williams with their first pick in the third round.

Bleacher Report: Patriots select Washington State WR Kyle Williams

New England is loading up on offensive pieces this draft 🔥

Round 3, Pick 95: Jared Wilson, C - Georgia

Michael Dussault, Patriots.com: Wilson might not start right away, but he's a high-upside depth piece who could grow into a starting role sooner than later. His intelligence and mobility make him a strong fit for the Patriots' system, and he's already shown the ability to handle complex defensive looks with poise.

Evan Lazar, Patriots.com: The #Patriots have selected Georgia C Jared Wilson with the 95th overall pick. Wilson posted a 9.98 RAS at the combine. Wide body, very good athlete with burst out of his stance, stout anchor. Starting-caliber upside.

Alexandra Francisco, Patriots.com: James White announces the No. 95 overall pick.

Jared Wilson -- a center from Georgia.

Mike Kadlick, Patriots CLNS: The #Patriots selected Georgia C Jared Wilson with the 95th overall pick.

Taylor Kyles, CLNS: The #Patriots have their center of the future and a potential day 1 starter

Mike Reiss, ESPN:

The Patriots select Georgia center Jared Wilson with their final third-round pick (No. 95):

🏈 6-foot-3, 310 pounds

🏈 Athletic (4.84 in 40, leading all centers at combine)

🏈One-year starter; young at position, moving to it in 2022

🏈 11-inch hand size is over average

Mark Daniels, MassLive: With pick 95, the Patriots draft Georgia center Jared Wilson.

Patriots land a developmental center. It's been a good draft for Drake Maye

Doug Kyed, The Boston Herald: That's a great pick. Competes with Garrett Bradbury for the starting center spot.
