New England Patriots – Team Reshuffle

Following the departure of four assistant coaches and Scott Pioli, the vice president of player personnel, the England Patriots are involved in a recruitment process for a new team.

Assistant coach Shane Waldron has been promoted to tight ends coach. Exploration college deputy director Jonathan Robinson was also promoted to the director’s job, a position that had been vacant since January 2008, since the departure of Thomas Dirmitoff, who left for the Falcons’ general manager job.

Waldron becomes the second assistant coach appointed this offseason by coach Bill Belichick. He joined the England Patriots the previous season after working as an offensive graduate assistant at Notre Dame for a three-season stint, where he worked under former Patriots offensive coordinator Charlie Weis.

Wide receivers coach Bill O’Brien was also promoted to quarterbacks coach in place of offensive coordinator coach Josh McDaniel, who left to take a job as Broncos head coach.

Head coach Belichick also replaced special teams coach Brad Seely with Scott O’Brien, a former special teams coach at Cleveland, and Dom Capers with Boyer, a move seen from the outside as promoting those inside or with. those who have worked before. Monti Ossenfort, who is making his eighth season back in the NFL and a fifth with the Patriots, was also given the job of national scout.

There is also news of the England Patriots signing franchisee quarterback Matt Cassel to a contract, which will mean Tom Brandy will remain on the bench following rehabilitation from knee surgery. Cassel remains the most valuable on the market for now as long as Kurt Warner remains in Arizona, which is expected to happen.

The Patriots went 11-5 last season thanks to Cassel, who rescued them after Tom Brady suffered a knee injury during the first week of the season. In December, England missed the playoffs after losing 4-0 and qualifying to the Ravens and Dolphins.

With most of the coaching jobs filled, the Patriots now have to focus on the quarterback situation, which is very vital to the team. They also have to make the tough decision to use Cassel based on Brady’s health, and decide whether they’re willing to pay him the expensive amount a franchised player gets or sell him to another team and make money off the move. Cassel is expected to get $14 million if the Patriots decide to use him.

However, it will be difficult for the Patriots to keep both Cassel and Brady on the team considering the NFL does not allow any team to spend money in any way, making it impossible to keep the best players on the field.

For a long time, the Patriots have been unsuccessful in landing a replacement on the free-agent market, which caused them to miss many touchdown passes last season. The Patriots still have 18 unrestricted free agents to choose from.
