They had good/great draft runs in a couple of patches. They just followed that up with bad stretches, which isn't really surprising, because GM work is largely hit and miss. But there's no question that Brady made it easier for Belichick to take gambles on picks against the advice of the scouts, and he did it a lot.
The Chiefs, because of Mahomes, are one of the teams now in position to do that same sort of thing, if they choose.
