The New England Patriots’ offensive line was a mess across the board, with center David Andrews as the notable exception. There is a difference between the tackle spot and the interior positions, though: the latter do not appear to be nearly as big a need as, for example, the left tackle spot in particular.
At least on paper, after all, the Patriots have both some players capable of starting in 2024 and some developmental upside.

The Patriots invested three mid-round picks in their offensive line, with one of those players — Sidy Sow — penciled into the starting right guard position at the moment.
