With concerns about the offensive line and a glut of receivers fighting for roster spots, the Pats have plenty of tough decisions to make.

Defensive tackle David Olajiga, who joined the Patriots right before training camp, is not counting against the 90-man roster limit. A member of the International Pathway Program, he is exempt but can practice with the team and appear in preseason games.

While Dugger and Peppers still look like starters, Woodson, a rookie, has been making a push early in camp. Epps currently looks buried behind Dugger, Peppers, Woodson and Hawkins. Schooler will make the roster as an All-Pro special-teamer, though he is working on the third-team defense.
