Player-by-player, where do you see our free agents ending up next season?
I think the Pats will take DE/ LB Vernon Gholston or the best DB.
Would love to have seen more of a workload to Stallworth. I don't think we saw enough of him this year. I don't know how options work. Can anything be done with it?
Asante Samuel - gone Pay the man; we need him more than he needs us.
Chad Scott - gone Good riddance
Eugene Wilson - gone I would re-sign him for good backup $$.
Jabar Gaffney - signs on for another 2 years I hope so, too.
Junior Seau - retires I'd try to convince him to return, as a backup.
Larry Izzo - gone I hope so.
Lonie Paxton - re-signs I think so, too.
Mel Mitchell - re-signs Only for the vet minimum. He's too injury-prone.
Randall Gay - re-signs See Eugene Wilson.
Randy Moss - gone Just like he was during the POs. Only for the vet minimum + incentives.
Tedy Bruschi - retires Maybe not yet. See Junior Seau.
Troy Brown - retires Afraid so. It was disgraceful that he wasn't active for the SB.
Donte Stallworth - cut I hope not; perhaps his contract can be restructed.
Kelley Washington - contract restructured Only for vet minimum + incentives.
Rosevelt Colvin - contract restructured I hope it can be, too.
Mike Wright - gone (Jets) No biggie, esp. if we can get a comp. pick. We need a young pass-rushing DE, anyway.
i have a good feeling either Wilson or Samuel will be a Jet because Mangini connection
Do not exercise the option.Would love to have seen more of a workload to Stallworth. I don't think we saw enough of him this year. I don't know how options work. Can anything be done with it?
The youth movement will be the trend of this offseason. The Pats will clean house and rebuild. You also forgot Samuel and the option on Stallworth.
Donte Stallworth - gone, unfortunately
Asante Samuel - gone
Chad Scott - gone
Eugene Wilson - gone
Jabar Gaffney - stays unless some other team wants to overpay
Junior Seau - If he wants to return I think the Pats will have a spot for him
Larry Izzo - stays
Lonnie Paxon - stays
Mel Mitchel - stays but always seems to get injured, played well on special teams
Randall Gay - I see him coming back but will be demoted to 4th option at best
Randy Moss - stays, he has unfinished business
Tedy Bruschi - See Seau
Troy Brown - I see him hanging it up
Who I think the Pats will bring in?
I think they will make a serious run at Terrell Suggs if the Ravens are dumb enough to not slap the franchise tag on him. I aslo think the will sign some veteran inside LB's who are around 25-27 in age.
Who I think they will draft?
I think the Pats will take DE/ LB Vernon Gholston or the best DB.
If Gholston is not around at pick #7, the Patriots will most likely trade down.I see you guys taking the best DB available since Gholsten probably wont be around.
