The Patriots' offseason focus is on enhancing their offensive line, following a difficult previous season. Mike Vrabel's strategy emphasizes strengthening both the offensive and defensive lines. Recently, they inquired about the availability of Joe Thuney, a former All-Pro guard who previously played for New England before winning Super Bowls with the Chiefs. Ultimately, Thuney was traded to the Bears for a fourth-round pick, a price the Patriots were reluctant to meet despite their considerable cap space, voicing concerns about taking on his cap hit for the 2025 season.
The Patriots reportedly reached out to the Chiefs regarding All-Pro left guard Joe Thuney but ultimately balked at the compensation requested.
Albert Breer expressed surprise at the Patriots' decision, given their urgent offensive line needs and the fourth-round pick price tag for Thuney.
