Since the OL keeps popping up in threads, and posters seem to be confused about why Patriots are possibly ignoring the LT position for this year (and trying to foolishly weaponize offense with players like Aiyuk), does anyone have 2-3 LT prospects for 2025 NFL draft?

another strong, strong class at OT
Pats could wait for rd 2 if they wanted to.
they will need DT help along with OT help

For now, the DTs are ahead of the OTs in the draft. With everybody looking for a good blindside tackle they will rise in the draft like always.

Personally, too soon for that. We might have LT locked up by the end of the season. We don't know. |

I’ll once again be disappointed if they don’t select a LT. Who do you project to be the starting LT of the future in New England? |

Chuks or Wallace Chuks couldn’t hack it w/ the Steelers at RT, never mind the left side. Wallace is also a RT. I’ll ask again. Who is the future LT of the NE Patriots? |

Why do we need a veteran or future all star LT so desperately?
Has anyone stopped to ask that?
Is Tom Brady the QB?
Mahomes?
Even so, we've already been told this offense is running 3 out of every 5 possessions if not 4!
How urgent is a pass protecting super hero LT in that offense?

Even so, we've already been told this offense is running 3 out of every 5 possessions if not 4! How urgent is a pass protecting super hero LT in that offense? There’s literally movies about it. It’s important in any offense regardless of the QB. The game is generally won and most in the trenches. If your QB can’t set his feet to throw the ball, as a fan you’re in for a long game. You saw it last season. You’ll see it again this season if the OL is as bad as I suspect it will be. Their ceiling is adequate at best, and have zero depth to survive an injury. |

Everything you say is true, I just think we won't be throwing it enough for a defensive coordinator to successfully exploit a below average LT. That's about as pessimistic I can be before seeing them play. |

Because Patriots offense will suck without an OL ranking in top 10 |
