Summary

Tune in as we officially turn the page to the offseason. We discuss leadership and the things Drake Maye could take away from the Super Bowl run and use towards growth on the field, sideline, and in the huddle. We talk filling the Patriots biggest needs with available free agents and discuss the players best fit for New England. Plus, we dive into draft prep as the combine is less than a week away.
