The New England Patriots entered free agency with over $127 million in cap space, knowing they needed to overhaul their roster.
They focused on filling major holes, increasing leadership and adding talent at key positions. Their free agency approach was not about signing superstars but about raising the floor of the roster and putting themselves in a position to draft the best player available instead of being forced to fill needs.
Key signings like Milton Williams, Robert Spillane, Morgan Moses, Carlton Davis III and Mack Hollins show that Mike Vrabel and the front office are committed to improving both the talent and the culture in the locker room.
