Sure we'd like to improve on the 2007 defense, at least with better young depth. Some even want to improve the offense?????? Belichick does NOT like to count on draftees to contribute in their first year, except for first rounder, but if he has to, he has to.
I think that we now have almost two months to replace or re-sign the following. And yes, I know that Seau could come back in August (or not). I could see Belichick counting on one player to come out of the draft and be a major contributer in 2008, but no more.

Does this mean that we should expect at least seven free agents to replace those players, plus jags to compete for roster spots. My answer is a strong YES. I expect to see a dozen March free agent signings (or re-signings), to add to the February re-signings.
