Schefter: Brady and Pats contract talks moving along very well - New England Patriots Forums

Just put up a few minutes ago on Twitter:

Quote:

Adam_Schefter Tom Brady and Patriots making progress on a contract extension that could get done this summer.

And the ESPN story: Sources: Tom Brady extension talks gaining ground - ESPN Boston

Does Chris Mortensen get paid per fact he reports? Cause if so he must be living off an inheritence.

Pretty coincidental that this comes out not long after he is supposedly in camp with the rookies...

Nah...couldn't be, he's supposed to be upset and holding out of camp angry about his lack of a new contract blah blah blah insert whatever false claims of the day about contract impasse

Glad to hear of any possible chance of a deal, and timing be damned I don't believe for a second this was why he was in camp early.

Sign this man, then work on getting his # up in the rafters.

Odd that he would negotiate with the team he is "angry" with.

It did make for some anger filled message board posts though, so I guess it was good for something.

Wrong sports arena

Unless all #s in the New England region have to be retired as well

Florio's got it up, too. He's still trying to put a negative spin on it. Report: Brady, Pats deal "within reach" | ProFootballTalk.com

Most interesting part of this article was this quote.

Quote:

The Colts would like to re-sign quarterback Peyton Manning, the Saints Drew Brees and the Redskins Donovan McNabb. At this time, the Patriots and Brady appear to be the furthest along in their conversations, according to league sources.

OK so apparently Brady is closer than these 3 but yet no stories out there about them potentially holding out if that doesn't show the media bias I don't know what does. I would like someone to explain this to me.

This is not going to make the boys at WEEI happy.

I believe it was Chris Gasper on Felger and Maz the other day in trumpeting Breer's upcoming column(that came out this morning) claiming that PeyMe Manning was farther along and they had all but agreed upon the structure of his deal while Brady wasn't close...oh how full of garbage that turned out to be for him.
