Giardi noted that "Stanley is the best out there" for possible offensive linemen in free agency, but now the Patriots will need to look elsewhere. That said, the Patriots will see other options when free agency begins. Other names to watch include Cam Robinson, Will Fries, Teven Jenkins, Jedrick Wills, and Patrick Mekari.

The New England Patriots have been linked with several top receivers over the last few years, and they're planning to make a push to sign one in free agency in 2025. Last offseason, the Patriots were considered for some of the biggest names at the position like Brandon Aiyuk and Calvin Ridley.
