Busy day for the Pats.
Kind of torn on how I feel about it.
On the one hand, they do clearly recognize that the team has some major holes that need to be filled.
On the other hand, they seem to think that they're a few aggressive free agency moves and a good draft away from being relevant again. No other explanation for spending top dollar to get guys on day 1 of free agency. They aren't getting that championship discount anymore.
I still feel like this is a team that's several years of patient building away from being in a position to compete again. Biggest thing is they don't have a QB who can give them a chance at winning meaningful games, so all of the other moves are kind of beside the point.
