The New England Patriots got offensive tackle Nate Solder to replace Matt Light. Got running back help with Stevan Ridley and Shane Vereen. Traded down and got additional first and second round picks next year. If Ras-I Dowling had been healthy last year, he would have been a first round pick. Patriots got value, and volume in this draft. Only problem was New England did not address a pressing need at defensive end and the pass rush.
