Offense
QB x2
Brady, Hoyey
WR x3
Moss,Edelman,Tate
OL x 9
Vollmer,Neal,Light,Le Voir,Kaczur,Ohrenberger,Mankin,Koppen,Connelly
RB x2
Maroney, Faulk
Defence
DE/DL x 5
Warren,Wilfork,Pryor,Wright,Brace,
LB x6

S x 4
Meriweather,McGowan,Sanders,Chung
Special Teams x3

I agree with most of your list because many of them obvious but I think there are even more spots open for because the following guys I would slide over to the bubble side:KaczurKoppen (Pats need to upgrade a Center badly and he has a high base salary)Maroney (trade bait)Alexander (I'd prefer Woods better on special teams)Ninkovich (depends on how many development guys are drafted)Wheatly (I think he gets another year but hes def. not a lock) -

I agree that we need an upgrade at center and do not let the door hit Kaczur on the way out either. I wonder what draft pick or what type of player can we get for Maroney. -

If the Pats enter the season with Maroney as their "top" back, you can forget about the SB or maybe the playoffs, as well.
