1. Sign Safety Ed Reed - Reed would do wonders for the Patriots Defense. He would bring this Defense together. He is a smart leader that Belichick loves. The Patriots need an upgrade at Safety next to McCourty. He could be the second coming of Rodney Harrison. 2. Resign Cornerback Aqib Talib - The Patriots Defense changed when Talib arrived in mid-season last year. He made them significantly better and is a must keep for the Patriots. His market is up in the air but if the Patriots think they won't be able to work out a deal they should franchise him. 3. Sign Wide Receiver Greg Jennings - Dwayne Bowe was the Receiver I wanted most but since he resigned with the Chiefs I'll go to my second option. I think the Patriots offense needs a change, they need to become more explosive and Jennings can provide that. If I had to choose between keeping Welker and signing Jennings, I'd pick Jennings. 4. Sign Defensive End Dwight Freeney - Freeney would be a great Defensive End oppo...

Here is a list of 10 NFL Free Agents that I think the Patriots could realistically be interested in and sign in Free Agency this year. As we all know the Patriots are always looking for value and I think these Free Agents would provide just that. 1. John Abraham, DE, Atlanta - Abraham is still a quality pass rusher and would be a nice rotation guy on the Patriots defensive line. He's not a full time player anymore but in sub packages he can provide an upgrade over what Trevor Scott and Jermaine Cunningham provided last season. 2. Connor Barwin, DE/OLB, Houston - Barwin is a versatile player, he can play DE or OLB. In the Patriots 4-3 Defense he would likely be a DE. He can get after the Passer and is solid against the run. He had a down year in 2012 so his stock is not that high right now but he's only 26 and has big potential. 3. Julian Edelman, WR, New England - This is one of their own guys I think they need to bring back. I'm a big fan of Edelman. I think he is a ...
