Belichick struggles to draft WRs.
He never replaced Gronk.
That killed the offense.

The defense if everyone was healthy this year would be good enough.
They lost 2 starters to opt outs. Lost NT for the entire season during training camp, and Gilmore has been hurt.

They drafted poorly on offense.
N’keal Harry killed them when they could have had AJ Brown or DK Metcalf.

This year Belichick finally had a good draft. Duggar,  Uche, Onwenu are all players.

Belichick explained himself he sold out the last few years for veterans to try and win now and it worked out.
This year was the credit card due. They had 25 million in dead money and then opt outs gave them gave cap space he didn’t burn. The Patriots never left 20 million in cap space at the end of a season. With Brady they don’t beat Buffalo this year but they are close to a playoff team if not in.

They will have the 4th most cap space and be able to fill holes. If they don’t draft a QB in the first round then getting one of Kyle Pitts, Devonta Smith, Jaylen Waddle or Rondale Moore better be the selection.
They need  legitimate top offensive weapon then the rest of the receivers fall into appropriate space.
