The New England Patriots are expected to be among the most active teams in NFL free agency this offseason. Not only do they have holes all over their roster and several crucial areas that need to be addressed, they also have vast resources to play with: New England is tops in the league with over $130 million in salary cap space available.
Parts of that sum going to the offensive tackle position would not come as a surprise. The position, after all, might be the single biggest need on the Patriots’ current roster after holding the team’s offensive back for several years now.
