Offense just have to wait until Edelman comes back and hope for the best.
Defense: Nothing. Talent isnt there. This year Kraft has to take away the GM duties away from BB and give them to someone else. BBs incompetence drafting players over the years has lead to this.
Hmmm..
2017 - Rivers and Wise (jury is still out on them)
2016 - Thuney, Brissett, Mitchell, Valentine, Hill, Roberts, Karras, C. Jones.
2015 - Malcolm Brown, Trey Flowers, Shaq Mason, G. Grissom, Joe Cardona, D. Roberts
2014 - Garoppolo, Stork, White, Fleming
2013 - Collins, Ryan, Harmon.
Just because Hill and D. Roberts are with other teams doesn't mean they were bad picks. The Pats wanted them on the PS and they couldn't sneak them there.
Brissett was traded for Dorsett. Dorsett looks like he'll be a competent #3/#4 WR.
Garoppolo was traded for a 2nd rounder that became Thuney and Mitchell. How was BB supposed to know that Mitchell's knees would let go after a season. Not to mention that without Mitchell, we don't beat Atlanta in the SB.
And how, pray tell, was BB supposed to know that Wynn, Berrios, Sam, Izzo, and Dawson would all get injured and have to be IRed..
2015 - You have 4 starters if you include Cardona since he's your Long Snapper.
2016 - Thuney is a starter. Roberts is a #4/#5lb. Karras is a damn good reserve and has shown he can spot start at Center.
It is idiocy to say that Kraft should take the GM duties away because BB doesn't do it by himself. He has Caserio and the entire scouting department.
5 SB rings. 8SB Appearances in 17 years. This idea that BB is somehow incompetent shows the kind of absolute arrogance that certain Pats fans have developed.. It's ridiculous and only shows badly on yourself.
