The Mike Vrabel-led Patriots organization has navigated the 2025 offseason's challenges brilliantly. It's been a Vrabel tour-de-force as he's proven that an NFL team can be rebuilt in one offseason - if, you know what you're doing. And Vrabel does.
It's been a night-and-day comparison with the bungling 2024 Pats' offseason. Absent drafting Drake Maye, a no-brainer non-decision seemingly mandated by owner Robert Kraft, the 2024 offseason was a complete and unmitigated disaster. The season was basically tanked before a ball was even snapped in anger.
Conversely, Vrabel has engineered a masterpiece 2025 offseason. He shored up both sides of the ball and special teams and improved all over the lot.
