You really do understand very little. The worst of it is your gripes and complaints aren't even yours. You don't have an original thought of any kind. You are simply parroting the Skip Bayliss's and Stephen A's of the world. You have no understanding of football or the team building process. Welcome to ignore.

WOW, this is a message.
You go girl
How well do the guys in the trenches do when 5 or 6 are blocking 8? Good luck getting people out of the box with 2 of the slowest WRs in the league on the outside.
A D2 safety at 37 is hilarious. Still can't get over that one.
Also, is it normal for a D2 supposed "super athlete" to nearly get run down on punt returns? I would think D2 "super athletes" would pull away from people. Maybe after 6 years in college you get a little fatigued.
I like most of the picks. I don’t like the fact we traded up for most of them when the same players would probably be available when we were picking. None of the picks we picked were picked after they were expected to be picked. We jumped up to pick players that were predicted to go later than we picked themTell me more? What hasn’t made sense?
Biggest positional issue on offense was TE. We addressed it
Defensively, we lost both KVN and Collins. We addressed this.
Chung is getting old. We addressed this.
We replaced Ghost.
Not gonna fix everything in one draft. We still need help at wr and to this point need a 3rd Qb. But all in all the pats have done a good job addressing some glaring needs.

Now I understand. You just don't get how football is played.
How's your Madden team doing?
Shouldn't you be shucking corn or something at this hour?

Football is played by taking advantage of mismatches. It's truly no more complicated than that. Early in the Pats run they would go with multiple WR sets (Brown, Patten, Givens, Branch) and bank on our 3rd and 4th WR being able to beat your 3rd or 4th DB. Then they tried drafting 2 first round TEs to create mismatches that way. They then went through some poor skill position groupings and finally loaded up in 2007 with mismatches everywhere. In 2010 we went back to the two TEs, but this time it actually worked. And so on and so on.
Now here we are....we're in a place where we have 1st rd and 2nd rd WRs (I'm calling Sanu our 2nd rd WR since that's what we gave up for him) that can't beat d linemen in man coverage.
We'll be facing defenses with everybody within 10 yards of the LOS all year. And I'm sure our OL is going to be extremely dominant with the loss of Dante. Losing him went real well last time.
So why again are you crapping on this draft when were attempting to create mismatches by acquiring 2 TEs?
Because we drafted 2 TEs who were mediocre (at best) in college.
I need to jump in here because literally every single thing you say here is wrong. Not just a couple of points but every single thing you said. You ended with a fitting comment because what happened last time Dante retired? Um, we won the SB.Football is played by taking advantage of mismatches. It's truly no more complicated than that.
