All you have to do is give this a little bit of thought (I know that's asking a lot of you).
Bill Bellichick is the head coach of the Patriots.
He doesn't have time to go on scouting trips, or to pour through the hours upon hours of tape on players in college.
That job fell to Scott Pioli.
He has to pare down potential draft candidates to much, much smaller list.
BB has the final say, but there's no way that you can look at the Patriots draft and fail to give Pioli a huge amount of credit for the work that's been done there.
