29. Patriots (12-4) — Xavier Rhodes, CB, Florida State How many times can the Patriots draft a defensive back in the late first round/early second round? As many times as it takes for them to actually have a good secondary.

While he is expected to draw some interest around the league, he isn’t necessarily on everyone’s radar screen. And the Patriots should also be able to offer him a relatively cap-friendly contract that’s comparable to Oakland, but far better working conditions.

I agree, I think there’s an argument to be made for Lloyd sticking around, even for a slightly-high $3 million. While not great, Lloyd was pretty good and did show some chemistry with Brady. He had some acrobatic catches, and should develop even more of a rhythm with Brady with another offseason of work.
I’d like to see them add at least a couple veterans and a rookie at wide receiver. Regardless of what happens with Welker.
