.....I cannot find a flaw; this is easily BBs best team.
Offensively, there are no OL worries, Brady is the best QB in the NFL, we are set at RB with Maroney, and with the WR moves, if all work out, it will be the best WR corps in the NFL, and if even 2 or 3 disappoint, it is still a huge strength.
Defensively, but for one half our secondary had a tremendous season (and the 2nd half of the AFCC was more about injured safeties and LBs than corners) and to what we had last year we have added James, Gay (injured all season) Meriweather, Harrison (injured most of season) and Wilson (injured most of season). We have the best DL in the NFL.
We have the best starting LB unit in the NFL. (I dont even think there is an argument)
We passed on a ton of LBs in the draft, in some cases saying no one (and a pick next year) was better for us than whoever was available.
I don;'t have a huge comfort level with Woods, Mays, Alexander, the late picks we made today as solid depth, but BB knows what they are capable of better than I. Thelack of emphasis tells me either the guys here for depth are promising, we have a plan to bring more in or the guys in this draft just were not any good. I doubt its the 3rd, because there was at least potential there.
The only issue I see is the depth at LB, and as that answer becomes clear, I feel better about this teams chances than any Pat team to date. (Speaking with foresight rather than hindsight about previous champs)
