Meet the Patriots’ Secret Weapon Poised to Shake Up the NFL Draft
Enter analytics, the secret weapon quietly reshaping this landscape. For the New England Patriots, that game-changer goes by the name Max Mulitz. Since joining last summer as personnel analytics coordinator, Mulitz has been weaving data science into the team’s scouting tapestry. With a sharp mind honed at Brown and George Washington University and a resume stretching from Eagles intern to Dolphins analytics director, he’s bringing a fresh perspective that blends cold data with a healthy dose of common sense. As Patriots’ EVP Eliot Wolf puts it, Mulitz doesn’t bow down to the numbers blindly—he tweaks, questions, and challenges projections, helping the team spotlight those under-the-radar prospects others might miss. In a draft cycle where every pick counts, Mulitz’s role in identifying outliers and prompting deeper dives into film could be the edge the Patriots need to stay ahead.
