Why you guys keep bitching about this?

Former Pats on the Chiefs:
Matt Cassel (a nice acquisition IMO)
Matt Gutierrez (scrub in New England, scrub in KC)
Corey Mays (never really got a chance as a Pat)
Ryan O'Callaghan (nice pickup, for free)
Mike Vrabel (nice pickup, and you basically got him for free)

That's five guys. Big friggin' whoop. Five guys, four of whom will probably be contributors (all except Gutes). None of those guys are "scrap heap" (again, aside from maybe Gutes).

Former Pats on the Denver Broncos:
Jabar Gaffney (won't add much)
Brandon Gorin (won't add much)
Daniel Graham (bust-o-rama)
Russ Hochstein (low level player)
LaMont Jordan (a decent platoon back)
Lonie Paxton (long snapper)
LeKevin Smith (depth on D, that's all)

They have two more than you. And aside from Jordan, most of them probably won't be of great use.
