Patriots
Additions: DT Beau Allen, WR Damiere Byrd, QB Brian Hoyer, DB Adrian Phillips, FB Danny Vitale
Departures: QB Tom Brady, WR Phillip Dorsett, TE Ben Watson,
OL Ted Karras, DT Danny Shelton, LB Elandon Roberts, OLB Jamie Collins, OLB Kyle Van Noy, S Duron Harmon, K Stephen Gostkowski
Verdict: Bill Belichick always manages to get the most out of his free agents and I don’t expect that to change without Tom Brady in the building. It’s the burning question in everyone’s mind: “How will they replace Tom?” I think Jarrett Stidham will surprise some folks with his ability, but there will still be an adjustment period. They’ll need to surround him with more talent if he is to succeed.
