Well, that they cut him isn’t as relevant to this discussion since Dillon was already in his 30’s when he signed that extension (Mixon is 23). I mostly just mentioned him because NE did see the value of bringing in a top RB. They’ve got by without doing so since, but they also had the GOAT at QB. It will be interesting to see if Belichick adds anymore hardware up there without Brady.
