I suppose he thinks the best path to winning is to continue to hire from the Belichick tree despite that not being a fruitful venture for other teams. The Patriots haven't exactly been a great drafting team over the years, just look at their failure over the last decade to find a decent WR so to me at least this is a pretty underwhelming hire when you consider how Bob Quinn bombed and Scott Pioli had a sub-.500 run in KC. Maybe one day the league will come to the conclusion that the Patriots success was largely due to two men but it's apparently going to take a few more failures.
