#Patriots training camp 6 notes: - Drake Maye stacking good padded practices. Efficient and accurate throughout practice, especially in the red zone - Productive days for AJ Brown, DeMario Douglas, and Eli Raridon.

Henry's 2025 season (career-high 768 yards and seven touchdowns on 60 catches, 72.5 percent snap share leading all Patriots pass catchers, first full 17-game season since 2022) argues against him being on a bust list, but the source's board has him at TE23 against a TE17 ADP, a fade. The case for caution is about ceiling, not floor. Offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels' distribution-heavy scheme caps how much any single pass catcher can produce, and the arrival of A.J. Brown gives Drake Maye a true alpha receiver the offense has never had, a target competitor Henry has not faced in New England. Brown's presence could pull coverage away from the middle of the field and help Henry's efficiency, or it could simply take targets that used to be his; either way, the range of outcomes is now wider. Free-agent signee Romeo Doubs should also be the clear No. 2 option in the passing game for Maye, pushing Henry from a featured role in 2025 to a lesser one in 2026.

Coming off best season of career with 14th in adjusted points per game; getting discount due to AJ Brown and Romeo Dobbs adding target competition. Depth chart behind him is Eli Rodnon (ramping up through season) and Reggie Gilliam (run blocker); Julian Hill's season-ending knee injury removes run-blocking competition. Stable early-season option if New England doesn't acquire additional tight end; no real ceiling but decent floor with ground game and multiple weapons reducing defensive focus. Recommended as safer pairing option with high-ceiling picks like Kittle in two-tight-end strategy, providing floor production while capturing ceiling upside.

“Rookie TE Eli Raridon caught the eye on multiple occasions working in the passing game, with his speed to get behind second-level defenders and ability to catch the ball in traffic standing out. Raridon's playing faster than he did in the spring and is getting first dibs on reps with Hunter Henry in two tight end sets.”
