Yes that's exactly right. Talent is not the most important thing to Belichik, doing it his way is. Name another team that won't draft a player just because they're represented by a certain agent? Most of the roster is comprised of either slapdicks or come via recommendations from his good ol' boy network (Urban Meyer at Florida for example). In the last 5 yrs the Pats have gone into EVERY draft with an average of at least 5 picks in the first 3 rounds. You could take the biggest idiot draftnick on this forum and give them 5 picks in the first 3 rounds over a 5 yr span of time and they'd have a hard time not having a better roster than what the myth of Belichik has put together in the same time span.
