Biggest needs: OL, Edge, WR, CB, S

Week 7 opponent: vs. Jaguars (London)

Remaining strength of schedule: .435 (30th)

The Patriots’ offensive line has been a mess so far this season, with inconsistency and injuries leading Jerod Mayo to deploy six different starting lineups through the first six games. Caedan Wallace, whom New England selected in the third round in April, got his shot among the starting five against the Jets in Week 3, but had a rough showing (as did the rest of the unit) and has since landed on injured reserve with an ankle injury. The Pats need to upgrade the protection if quarterback Drake Maye is to progress in 2025.
