Don't you think some info would have been at least leaked if the pats were interested?

Not necessarily. The Pats have always been a below the radar type of team. SMY reported today the Pats were making a huge push for Desmond Bryant who signed with the Browns. I don't remember anyone reporting the Pats were targeting him until this report which was after he signed with the Browns.
I don't think so. That'd be a nice amount of money to put into the defense, especially in this buyer's market.

IMO he HAS to stay now. A must in my eyes now that welker is gone. maybe another year in our system will improve him
Lloyd is only getting $4 million a season. He signed a three year, $12 million deal.
Yes, I know. But the debate over whether to retain him on the roster this season revolves around his $5 mill cap hit for the year.
Even so, 2 mill separating Lloyd and Wes? Still makes no sense. And that's while acknowledging Lloyd was a bargain last year. The Patriots simply did not value Wes Welker going forward. And I don't know why.
It was reported 2 days ago the pats among 4 other teams were looking into him
Ok, maybe I am wrong about him. Didn't see that report.
In the past though, we haven't heard about the Pats' interest in players until they have announced their signings.
I am not betting on the Pats going after Jennings. My guess if they make a big splash, it will be on defense and not for another WR.

Maybe they saw something we didn't. We will never know. But wes is going to kill it in denver the next 2 years...hopefully not against the pats
Lets say if they cut him....are we screwed...becasue i think we are. What if amendola gets hurt again with no real #1 WR...talk about 3-4 yard passes every play. They drop him they save 3 M...do the make a trade for someone? a #1 WR? Or do they really think gronk and AH will play all 16 games
His cap hit this year is $4.5 million. Lloyd gets a $3 million bonus on Saturday plus he gets $1.9 million in salary. That is where the $5 million comes from. He gets paid $5 million in real dollars.
A cap hit for Lloyd at $4.5 million is a good deal. Welker getting a cap hit at $6 million is a bargain.
it was from rap or breer..i forget
Lewis, Aso and talib..no news...all coming to NE!!!
resemble Wes Welker, so I'm not sure what the point of the comparison is. Not to mention, no one was worrying about Stokley
