Biggest Names

Kevin Mawae, Casey Rabach, Jahri Evans (RFA), Logan Mankins (RFA), Stephen Neal, Jon Jansen, Marcus McNeill (RFA)

There are loads of talented offensive linemen available in free agency this year, but most of them will probably be restricted, assuming the “uncapped year” does go into effect, which most observers believe will happen. Teams could then go the veteran route for the likes of Mawae or Jansen, or they could opt to sink some money in an offer sheet in an effort to pry a younger guy (Mankins, perhaps?) away from his current team. Either way, teams looking to bolster their fronts will have an opportunity to do so with this crop.

Possible Patriots

Mankins, Russ Hochstein, Khalif Barnes (RFA)

The Patriots could be in the market for some veteran additions along the offensive line. Mankins will most certainly be given the highest tender and return, but Neal may not. That leaves room for another guard and Belichick may want some experience to go along with Dan Connolly and Rich Ohrnberger. Hochstein could return in that scenario. Also, Sebastian Vollmer's emergence may make veteran Matt Light expendable, in which case another tackle would be needed. Barnes has plenty of starting experience in his five seasons and could be a possibility.
