The last few years of his tenure as the Patriots' head coach won't be remembered too fondly, but there are a few things that stand out positively for Bill Belichick during that time that continue to go under the radar. The most noteworthy of all is his applaudable decision to select CB Christian Gonzalez with the team's first-round selection in 2023, as he has already become an anchor of their defense.
Although there are rumors that the former head coach almost passed on the Oregon alum for another player, Gonzalez became a Patriot and has every reason to remain on the team for as long as possible, especially with how he's played over the last three seasons.
