The New England Patriots are gearing up for NFL free agency with several pressing needs, particularly at wide receiver, offensive line, and defensive tackle. With Christian Barmore's uncertain future and Daniel Ekuale hitting free agency, the Patriots must address their defensive line.

They have ample cap space, making it feasible to pursue Dallas Cowboys defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa, who has emerged as a key player for Dallas. Signing him could significantly bolster New England's defense for the upcoming season.
