At the top of the NFL draft, it seems likely to consist of quarterbacks, meaning some great talent should fall to the fourth pick for the New England Patriots. However, which great talent to take is the main question, as the roster currently has a ton of needs to address.

Luckily for the Patriots, they do have some resources to help speed up the process — starting with more than $130 million in salary cap space heading into the NFL’s 2025 free agency period. The team has already started spending some of it, adding pieces to the roster early in free agency.

The New England Patriots should be busy over the next several weeks as Mike Vrabel and company look to build a winning roster for 2025 and beyond.

The Patriots are reportedly linked with wide receiver Tyler Lockett, who was released by the Seahawks this offseason.

The New England Patriots went into this offseason with the most salary cap space in the NFL to help build a stronger foundation around quarterback Drake Maye, who looked promising as a rookie despite the losses the team endured.
