Roster recap
The Patriots' 53-man roster is set, and the position-by-position breakdown is detailed in this Boston Globe story.
The offensive and defensive lines are well stocked, while linebacker is one area that could be addressed before the season-opener.
Last week, we attempted to project the final roster. Not counting the trade for Doug Gabriel, we missed on three players -- defensive lineman Le Kevin Smith and offensive linemen Gene Mruczkowski and Wesley Britt. Those players took the spots of safety Tebucky Jones (injured reserve), Barry Gardner (injured reserve) and Billy Yates (cut) on the projected roster.
