What Is Patriots’ Biggest Need Before Training Camp: Offense Or Defense?

The New England Patriots will hold their first training camp practice in two weeks. Exactly what the roster looks like when the team takes the field at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, Mass. remains a work in progress. Fourteen days is an eternity for coach Mike Vrabel and executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf to shuffle the roster.

According to CBS Sports’ Josh Edwards, the Patriots’ biggest need heading into camp is on the defensive side of the ball. “Edge rusher and linebacker are probably on similar footing,” Edwards wrote.
