In this scenario you don't need to spend a draft pick on another young and inexperienced DB. This secondary needs experience and not more youth.
I'm not sure where you are getting that this secondary will be "young and inexperienced" next season.
Next year will be Butler's 3rd season....Ryan's 4th season.....Coleman's 2nd season....Melvin's 4th season.
Is it very experienced...not really, but it certainly isn't "inexperienced".
Plus the secondary includes the safeties as well....McCourty's 7th season....Chung's 8th season......Harmon's 4th season.....Richard's 2nd season......King's 2nd season. If Ebner or Wilson come back, that will be their 5th season.
The lone "rookie" next year will be Roberts who will be way ahead of most rookies by way of his "red shirt" year in the Patriot's system.
I certainly see room for a rookie DB next year and since BB has drafted a DB in every draft since like....forever, I think it's safe to say we'll see at least one drafted for 2016 as well.
