Patriots Edge Rushers:

Rookies Sam Roberts and LaBryan Ray both flashed well. Ray was moved to several positions, and bringing impressive versatility to the table

“Christian’s (Barmore) done a good job. He’s way ahead of where he was last year…He has a much better understanding of what we do,

“Jimmy was practicing and then decided not to play. Jacoby played with no ligaments in his thumb, which you can’t do that as a quarterback.”

Wilson, McGrone, and McMillan are all smaller, faster, and more athletic. Will it work? We’ll see but this what we’ve been waiting for

We are going to continue to try and find ways to make this team better,

Wyatt has the size, pass rush moves, and athleticism to develop into a consistent interior rusher in the NFL. He plays with a non-stop motor

“We won’t be calling any plays for a while,” Belichick said. “Don’t have any games for a while,” when he was asked about who will be calling the plays. 

“the thought on Ojabo is that if you get him now, you could have a superstar at a critical position in two or three years.”

Lloyd has an excellent combination of size, speed, athleticism, and playing experience. He is a sideline-to-sideline linebacker who offers very good coverage of backs and tight ends

Booth is easily among the top five corners coming out in the draft in 2022, providing both the ability to play man coverage or zone

While there are definitely questions, and more moves at linebacker coming, they seem to be moving to a smaller, quicker group

The linebacking core was the cornerstone for the defense in several Super Bowls, but the times, like Bob Dylan said, “are a-changing”.

“This offseason will be a big, big part of it, just getting stronger and cleaning up on my diet and all that,” Jones said.

The Patriots did start well with the defense notching a 3-and-out with the offense scoring TDs on their first five drives in a 50-10 win

If both Stevenson and Harris are able to go there is no reason to believe that the running game wouldn’t be successful once again.
