The Patriots have 2 firsts and 2 2nd rd picks this year.....They better use them or trade up for once! With the new rookie pay scale in the CBA going into effect...they should be able to draft and keep a couple for once! I think this young defense gets a little better next year....and if they somehow draft a playmaker they could make a huge improvement!

They also need a big tall wide out......cant run slant routes every play. Branch is obviously close to all done.

They are lucky they even got this far this year. They are still missing alot of pieces. Yeah it sucks to lose the superbowl....but after watching every game....never did I expect them to get that far with that defense....the D stepped up.
