With all the fair weather fans running their mouths fresh from visiting the once every 86 year country clubbers clans, I want to pose a question.
Even with out this team being completed, and no double draft having been conducted, where wil the 2006 edition rate when compared to other Patriots squads.
My take is:
This squad may well be the best Team the Patriots have ever fielded! Why ??Let me list some reasons:
The DL line is the best in football and now is fully blooded.
The DB are very deep and all are vets, no longer rooks fully blooded.
The OL is deeper and better at every position than ever before. Including Hannah lines)
The TE corps is stronger than ever; no rooks or near rooks, are being counted on.
The QB group is as complete as when Bledsoe and Brady were there in 2001
And unlike then now both are healthy.
There is a RB group with a big time RB and the best 3rd down back(s) ever.
The weaknesses are almost mirages and subjects for fan dsicussion threads. More apparent than real.
The LB corps is/will be the quickest we have fielded in the BB era. It will get stronger before September.
The WR corps lost its #2 WR but will have to make do with an aging Probowler instead. BFD.
