The Patriots' offseason improvements are highlighted by Eliot Wolf's strategic decisions, such as opting for Stefon Diggs instead of Tee Higgins. Despite fan favorites like Higgins returning to the Bengals on an expensive contract, his performance history and the Patriots' roster needs justified avoiding overspending. Moreover, issues within the Bengals organization, alongside Higgins' injury history, further validate the decision to pursue better overall team balance rather than focusing on a single high-cost player.
Tee Higgins wound up back in Cincinnati on a four-year, $115 million deal, and the Patriots signed Stefon Diggs to a three-year contract.
Higgins has never had more than 80 catches or 10 touchdowns in a season, making him expensive without being a number one receiver.
Eliot Wolf made the right decision to pass on trading for Tee Higgins, focusing on improving the team without overspending on one player.
Higgins' injury history raised some red flags, making it crucial for the Patriots to have reliable players.
