Folks may not realize just how heavy the Pats roster is with players that the Patriots drafted or signed as undrafted rookies.
36 Players - slightly over 2/3 of the roster:
There are 29 players who were drafted in the NFL draft.
There are 7 players who were signed as undrafted rookies by the Pats.
17 Players - slightly under 1/3 of the roster:
There are 14 players who were signed as free agents.
There are 3 players who were acquired by trade.
With next years numerous draft picks, it will be interesting to see if the ratio tips even more toward players originally signed by the Patriots.
