Not saying they don't sign FAs but they are normally cast offs with issues very similar to what we do. The only real difference is their coaching and their hall of fame QB.

Falcons on the other hand did sign Sanu and Mack, so it can be done either way.

Agreed. Also, the Pats have used higher profile FA (and trades) with past SB teams. Revis and Browner. Moss. Dillon. Seau. Rodney Harrison. Blount was a 1000 yard back with the Bucs when they originally signed him. Martellus Bennett was a 90 catch TE in 2015. 
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
