00:00PRS speaking of a team trying to bolster that defense. It's

00:03exactly what the Patriots are doing right now under Mike

00:07Rabel, the defensive minded head coach, the Patriots with more

00:10than $120 million in cap space this offseason, by far the most

00:15to spend around the NFL. And they're making good on that

00:19money. The guy that you mentioned yesterday from

00:21Philadelphia, a very successful four year span in Philly on his

00:25rookie deal, but knew he was going to get paid Milton

00:29Williams reported early to maybe go to Carolina finds his

00:33way to Foxboro on a four year $104 million deal. 63 mil

00:38guaranteed Donnie Howie Roseman would have loved to brought him

00:42back, but that money Philadelphia just couldn't

00:45afford. Yeah, you knew he wasn't coming back along with Joshua

00:48to sign with the Arizona Cardinals, but let's focus on

00:50New England Patriots. This is the interesting part like the

00:53Patriots defense technically was never really the issue. The

00:56goal in the NFL is to get a good young quarterback, which

00:59if they think Drake Mays that guy surround him with talent

01:02the offensive line outrageously bad. The wideouts completely

01:06inept the running back situation pedestrian. I look at them

01:10today exact same things here. So their free agent money was

01:13spent on defense. When you take a look at other teams saying

01:16I have my young quarterback. Let me get all the confidence

01:19in the world and make sure that side of the football is

01:21correct. Then we'll focus on defense. It's a long way to

01:23go in free agency. It's a lot of fill in the blank spots

01:26here. You have draft capital. You can go maybe even make

01:28a trade, but you need to focus on that offense. The issue

01:31is not the defense which they short up. No Williams is

01:34a quality defensive young prospect. That should be really

01:36good in the NFL. Landry was a great pickup familiar with

01:39Mike Frabel and also the defensive back to your pickup

01:42Carlton Davis the third great one to name your quarterback

01:44set your defensive line set you bring over Spillane like

01:47the defense, but that offense still looks wretched right

01:51now. Let's see what they do.
