The Patriots' best 2025 offseason move bar none was hiring Mike Vrabel. The experienced former player and successful Head Coach has brought professionalism to both the personnel aspect and the coaching that was desperately needed. It was a year late, but Robert Kraft finally got one right.
Vrabel is the consummate professional NFL head guy. He's the hub around which everything else turns. His supremely self-assured but not cocky demeanor inspires confidence in his players and his front office personnel, as well. He's the lead sled dog, and no one else is even close. And let's not forget his opponents.
