What he means is that if the Pats signed one or two good players last year, they would have won the Super Bowl (i.e. replace Dieon Branch in season via Javon Walker, etc so that getting a 1st down in the 4th quarter to win the AFC championship game by killing the clock would be more realistic). There also may have been backup LBs last year, just maybe who were FAs, that could play more affectively than Alexander unless you think a 18 yr vet can last for 150 tackles - thats his point and its valid.
I'd be happy with the #2 ranking. for free agency. When you incorporate 2 #1 picks, you will say FA + Draft ranking is #1.
