There’s a serious issue looming for the Patriots that they’ll most certainly begin addressing this offseason, and it has nothing to do with Matt Cassel, Tom Brady or Scott Pioli. It’s their 2009 free agent class. It’s the quality of that group, which includes past and present Pro Bowlers Vince Wilfork, Richard Seymour, Logan Mankins, Mike Vrabel, Stephen Gostkowski and Tedy Bruschi, as well as starters Ellis Hobbs, Kevin Faulk, Stephen Neal, Benjamin Watson and Gary Guyton. And that’s not even mentioning key contributors Jarvis Green, Nick Kaczur, Kelley Washington and virtually every backup offensive lineman.
