NFL Draft: UCF wide receiver Javon Baker selected in 4th round by New England Patriots

Stocking up on weapons to support No. 3 overall pick Drake Maye, the New England Patriots grabbed UCF wide receiver Javon Baker with the 110th selection of the 2024 NFL draft Saturday afternoon.

All five of New England's picks through the opening four rounds have addressed needs for their 31st-ranked offense. In addition to Maye and Baker, the Patriots chose Washington wide receiver Ja'Lynn Polk, Penn State offensive tackle Caedan Wallace and Texas A&M guard Layden Robinson.

Baker, a 6-foot-1, 202-pound senior who began his college career at Alabama, earned All-Big 12 first team honors in 2023 after leading the conference with 1,139 receiving yards.
