Hochstein re-signed to 1-year deal - Page 4 - New England Patriots Forums

The guy has been a more than capable backup for years. I thought he was outstanding as a FB. Nothing wrong with this signing.

Good move by the Pats, he gives us some more good depth at OL which is a place where we can always use solid backups

Bummed, because I was hoping someone else would overpay for Hoch - for his sake - and because I'm ready to move on from our current crop of reserve interior OL. Like you I have drafting a replacement for Neal high on my list, I just can't see any value to bringing Hoch back, unless they want him for LS.

A solid backup at three line positions, who can long snap and play goal line full back on a 1-year deal isn't value to you?
