Lots of detail and a great recap of how we got here as depressing as it may be.
Patriots timeline: How New England fell from Tom Brady and Super Bowls to Mac Jones and 2-10
To me this is the catalyst that kickstarted the fall. If Bill hadn't whiffed so hard on that Harry pick Brady might have stayed and made it work.
April 25, 2019: Arizona State receiver N'Keal Harry is selected with the final pick of the first round (No. 32) of the NFL draft. The next day, the team trades up in the second round for Vanderbilt cornerback Joejuan Williams at No. 45. Neither player comes close to living up to his draft status; Harry plays in 33 games and totals 57 catches; Williams appears in 36 games with one start. These selections highlight a run of shaky drafting.
