The Mike Vrabel-led Patriots have made major strides in the 2025 offseason to improve a roster that produced a 4-13, 2024 record. He added solid, if not spectacular, NFL players to a dismal roster and created the distinct possibility of a 2025 playoff run.
Vrabel bolstered both sides of the ball. On defense, he added playmakers to each level, transforming a lackluster 2024 group into an attacking menace. The difference should be stark once the team takes the field against NFL opposition.
On offense, Vrabel also made a lot of improvements. He upgraded the O-line with two likely starters in free agency and also drafted three O-linemen, two of whom may also start.
