Shmessy - You clearly didn't think too hard before you replied. There wasn't squat for Wright to compete against in Tampa last year. So him being a UDFA doesn't make a damn bit of difference.
It's unlikely that Wright saw "a lot of heavy coverage" with Vincent Jackson on the field.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, the Patriots will get a fourth-rounder in addition to tight end Tim Wright in exchange for veteran guard Logan Mankins.
That’s not bad, considering Mankins’ big salary numbers ($6.25 million in 2014, $6.75 million in 2015 and 2016).
The 32-year-old Mankins might not be the same player he once was, but any version of himself is better than what the Bucs had at guard. Their desperation was evident that they’d give a mid-round pick to get him and pay him a pile of money.
The only huge backlash BB will face is if the interior of the OL (especially LG) allows a sack that ends up injuring Brady.
Tim Wrights rookie stats are comparable to Aaron Hernendez's

Have @Patriots freeing up $5.755m in cap space since player with 495K salary will replace Mankins in Top 51. 14 dead money=4.25m. 15 dead=4m
Mike Loyko @NEPD_Loyko5 minsAnd BB still operates like one of the worst GMs one the league. One a stupid move at this point not to protect Brady.

Brady was sacked 40 times last year, second most in his career. I'll see how this year plays out first before making proclamations.And BB still operates like one of the worst GMs one the league. One a stupid move at this point not to protect Brady.
what a week for the glazers to go on a spend spree. Keep the money in Manchester please...
lol tampa didn't have a 2014 4th --- we got scammed!!!!
So, because you have nothing to contradict that the reason for the trade is the cap relief and to get Tim Wright, you totally discount the reality of last year's situation and the situation in training camp. The fact that Wendell has had only 1 series of snaps with the 1st team and spent the rest of the time with the 2nd and 3rd stringers.
It's much more likely that Wendell's standing with the team played no part in the decision to trade Mankins.
Who besides me sees the sneaky hand of a young mobile Jimbo Garappolo behind this trade?
£60M on Di Maria......oy vey. Will he play at centre back? That's what you need.....
