The New England Patriots fielded a historical passing offense recording the second most passing yards in NFL history during the 2011-12 NFL Season with Gronkowski, Hernandez, Welker, Branch. Through unrestricted free agency in March 2012, the New England Patriots offense has now added Brandon Lloyd, Donte Stallworth, Anthony Gonzalez, Daniel Fells to the wide receiver and tight end positions.We have been terrible at the position but others Teams have been successfull. So it's not an indictment on the position itself. When we Drated Bethel Johnson we could have had Anquan Boldin...the year we Drated Chad Jackson we could have had Greg Jennings...the year we drafted Brandon Tate we could have had Mike Wallace you get the point one of these times we are going to get lucky.
The New England Patriots defense needs serious upgrades at the 3-4 defensive end position, the 3-4 outside linebacker position, the strong safety and free safety positions, and quite possibly the cornerback position. The priority in the 2012 NFL Draft for the New England Patriots should be defense not offense.
