The New England Patriots are wasting no time after their surprise run to Super Bowl 60.

They've kicked off the NFL all season with key free agent signings to bolster their

defense and offense.

They added defensive end and linebacker, Tremott Jones, to improve the pass rush and brought

in safety, Kevin Byer to strengthen the secondary.

A big move came at wide receiver where they signed Romeo Dalles to a 4-year, $70 million

contract.

This fills the gap left after releasing Stefan Diggs earlier.

Dubs brings versatility that fits perfectly with their scheme under offensive coordinator

Josh McDaniels.

NFL.com senior columnist Jeffrey Chadiha called the Dubs signing the 9th best move so far

this all season.

He noted how Dubs can work short, middle, and deep routes without needing to be a top

star.

Fans and analysts see it as a smart, low-drama addition compared to Diggs' past issues.

Dubs thrived last season with the Green Bay Packers, leading them in targets at 85, catches

at 55, and yards at a career high 7.

124.

He also tied for the team lead with six receiving touchdowns.

Meanwhile, talks of a trade for Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver AJ Brownlinger given

his history with head coach Mike Ravel.

These steps show the Patriots building smartly for another strong year.
