That's what people were saying about tight ends until Gronk and Hernandez showed up.
It's bound to be good one of the last 10 years. Gotcha.

Trade or a free agent sign...
I have given up hope that Bill will get a stud DB in the draft,it's one failed experiment after the other....thankfully he has done well in other positions to keep the team in SB contention.
Here's a list of current street FAs:

Not much from which to choose after 7 weeks, but there's gotta be somebody who can help
more than Mal Williams could, I hope.
yeah, id rather them draft d-linemen and offensive players (depending on the WR's of course), and simply sign DB's. whether its talent evaluation or player development (or both), the draft has not been very kind to the secondary.
I think Dimitroff did help Bill when he was here in aiding him to find some talent in the secondary,it seems much worse since Tom left for the Falcons
My wonder is,can you rebuild a secondary from scratch before Brady retires and the offense falls into oblivion?
I think there is a 3 year window remaining for Belichick to get a laughing stock of a secondary fixed to something even resembling NFL caliber before the party's over with Brady.
3 years is quite the challenge,going hog wild with at least several FA vets in the next offseason might be the only way to get it done faster.

Real quick, name anybody that we currently have in the secondary that's better than Talib is. Go!
He also came from a college that played mostly zone, which he excelled at. Throughout 2011, the Patriots were trying to play more man coverage and McCourty struggled. You can see his improvement in it this year, though he's still inconsistent.
Chung got extremely lucky early on. An example of that was Henne throwing the ball RIGHT TO HIM in 2010. He's never been any good in coverage and has always been a better safety against the run.
Much like Chung, Arrington got lucky quite a bit last year. He caught a lot of batted and underthrown balls but was still torched when those balls weren't batted or underthrown.
#Patriots announce they've promoted DB Malcolm Williams to 53-man roster to fill spot opened when Ras-I Dowling moved to IR
The answer is: Without free agents and veterans, no.
Mccourty, Dennard, Arrington, Moore, Cole, Williams
What a CB group of pure UTTER greatness and talent!

You & Ken need to get your heads outta Bill's ass every once and awhile and face the fact:
Those of us who feared that Glas-IR Dowling was over-drafted by almost a full round have been
proven correct. Even Aaron Williams would've been a better value/risk-reward pick at 33.
And that Jim Mora quote was garbage then, and it's more garbage now.
ahh what a pick.
They should just cut this waste of space.....another blown BB secondary pick is right!!! This guy is the most injury prone pats player that we have ever had isn't he? I am sure they will just dump him at this stage...
