During a media session at the NFL Scouting Combine, Eliot Wolf, the Patriots' executive vice president of player personnel, expressed accountability for the team's unsuccessful 2024 season, acknowledging that the 4-13 record stemmed from his roster decisions. Despite previous assertions of spending, Wolf's free-agent acquisitions failed to significantly impact the team's performance, and he admitted some draft picks have yet to meet expectations. This candid admission comes after the firing of coach Jerod Mayo, emphasizing the interconnectedness of roster decisions and coaching effectiveness.
Even though Jerod Mayo was the one fired just hours after New England's miserable 2024 season came to an end, Wolf acknowledged on Wednesday that he was the one responsible for building a flawed roster last spring.
Certainly the free-agency class didn't live up to our expectations. The draft class, it's too soon to tell, but we were expecting a bigger impact from some of those guys and we're still hopeful they'll get to that point.
