Since the Patriots’ record-setting 2007 season, the team has struggled to find wide receivers with the deep pass. Over the last five seasons, only 11.8 percent of the Patriots passes to wide receivers have been more than 20 yards downfield, the second-lowest rate in the NFL.

Several sources believed the Patriots would make a run at Cruz, but that was prior to Cruz changing agents recently and going with Tom Condon, who the Pats generally don’t do business with. While in the past, in general, restricted free agent activity has been limited, some teams are aggressive and looking to make moves to add to the offense, and there are no shortage of teams with abundant cap space.
