Yes. And he wants to fill as many holes on the roster BEFORE the draft. He hates going into the draft being forced to pick at certain positions because of overwhelming need. Now with Gronk, Allen and Lengel (who they tendered), we at least have three guys on the roster.
TE position is thin in FA, and Bennett is likely to get overpaid so he's gone, so Pats trade for one.
With Gronk's health, and the depth at TE in the draft this year, I'd like to see a pick used on a TE anyway...
