Eric Edholm of Pro Football Weekly believes Bill Belichick and the New England Patriots could try and sign Houston Texans defensive end/linebacker Mario Williams once he becomes a free agent on March 13th.
I honestly don’t see Belichick going after Williams, since he was still able to get a solid pass rush this season with Mark Anderson, Vince Wilfork and Andre Carter. And just like Edholm mentioned, it’s not Belichick’s style to sign big money free agents and I wouldn’t expect to change this offseason.
I would expect the Patriots to potentially draft a pass rusher within the top half of the draft. But don’t forget, their biggest need is in the secondary. They need to at least draft another corner and safety.
