CP3MVP Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 They kindoff have to bring back solder. He’s not elite but he’s a good dependable top 12 LT in the league. I don’t see how you trust your 41 year old Qbs blindside to some unproven guy. That’s a disaster waiting to happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't blame him for that. Because Denver was our biggest rival at the time. Don't get me wrong, I'd be glad to have him back, but I wouldn't my breath.

Antonio Garcia. I think Scarrnechia will get away with 4/5 starters returning while training a guy they invested in on the job so to speak.

It had nothing to do with him going to a rival. It had everything to do with him trying to poach Bill's coaches on the plane ride back from a playoff loss.

goldfishwars Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 Cutting Allen, Bennett, Branch, Gillislee and Britt would gives us 30m in cap space. If you added Ghost (1.5m hit, but owed 5m this year), McClellin (.8m hit, but owed 3.1m) and Davis Harris (0.6m hit, but owed 2.8m) that would give us a total of 34m in cap space to play with. That should be enough to bring Solder (12m per year?), Lewis (5m), Burkhead (3m do we need both?) and Amendola (3.5?) - plus a bunch of the special teams guys who are out of contract.

I don't think you need to bring Rex back or cut cut Shea McClellin right away either. Im looking at Amendola as a luxury at this point to come back since he signed that contract to model and might retire. Don't seem like he wants to retire now, but thats how the Pats must be prepared in worst case scenario with him. Dion Lewis is a luxury to bring back too. Highly replacable. Solder would hurt the most, but for a couple more years it would be worth it probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elky Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Way too premature and idealistic final 53: *Special TeamsFree agent pick up QB (3) Tom Brady Brian Hoyer Draft Pick RB (4)C.J.

Brandon Bolden* Rex Burkhead James WhiteFB (1) James Develin WR (6) Danny Amendola Brandin Cooks Julian Edelman Chris Hogan Malcolm Mitchell Matt Slater* TE (3) Jacob Hollister Rob GronkowskiBen Watson: Still productive despite his age and has played for us in the past. Also provides leadership. OT (4) Marcus Cannon Cameron Fleming Antonio Garcia LaAdrian Waddle C (1) David Andrews OG (4) Ted Karras Shaq Mason Joe Thuney Draft Pick DT (5) Malcolm Brown Lawrence GuyClinton McDonald: Only free agent DT that I know that provides a pass rush that won't cost a fortune. Vincent Valentine Draft Pick DE (4) Trey Flowers Derek Rivers Deatrich Wise, Jr. Draft pick LB (5)Demario Davis: Has a better PFF rating than Bradham and his market value is a little lower.
