Sign the Beast(s) XXXII -- What Three Free Agents?

What Three Free Agents?



Hey everybody! Tell me what 3 free agents, the Patriots could sign, that would most take the sting out of losing Revis, and none of them have to be CBs. Ready - GO! I'll give my 3 later.

I've decided to list mine now: 1. DT Knighton 2. OLB Sheard 3. RB Spiller

RB DeMarco Murray
OG Mike Pollak
DT Terrance Knighton

Then there's a lot of other players I'd consider too like Jabaal Sheard, Ahtyba Rubin, Stefen Wisniewski (apparently a better Guard than Center so would fit into the line), Rob Housler, Darren McFadden & Reggie Bush.

There's good players left out there to be picked up.

1. Andre Johnson
2. Percy Harvin
3. The best CB or NT available.

DT - Knighton. Wanted him from the get go for a Wilfork replacement/upgrade. Didn't think we had the cap space for it. Shouldn't be the case anymore.

LB/DE - Sheard. Can help out in multiple ways. Think he is more the player he was in his first two seasons then his last two.

WR - A. Johnson. Have never been the type who wanted an aging WR. But I think he still has a couple of good years left and the Pats are going to need more offense now.

JJ Watt, Richard Sherman, or Aquib Talib, but since the three clubs that have their rights are not dumb enough to let them get to FreeAgency, none of them are available.

Revis is a singular talent, and to let him get away, to a division rival no less, was just dumb!

There is no one out there that can replace him, the Pats defense is going to be much worse next year.

Potroast, Sheard, Harvin.

G/C Stefen Wisniewski - 25 years old from Raiders
DL Dan Williams from Cardinals
CB Brandon Browner

Andre Johnson would be a great add, as well. I agree.

1. Wisniewski
2. Sheard
3. Knighton

Nothing will be take out the sting of loosing Revis for me personally though.

1. Tramon Williams - need to upgrade the secondary badly

2. Jabaal Sheard

3. Percy Harvin

Cromartie - not likely
Browner
A. Johnson

Kendrick Ellis/Knighton if you can afford him. I like Ellis a lot, though.
Michael Bennett (if he's cut)/Jabaal Sheard
CJ Spiller/Reggie Bush

Percy Harvin?

Wheel a trade for Keenan Lewis, maybe. The guy I'd really like is JMac, but I doubt you could pry him from the Titans.

Most of all, they need a run-stuffing DT and maybe another interior pass rusher (and I do expect Easley to step up this year).

A proven 3rd down back would be nice (I like the two guys I listed a lot).

A guy who can add an offensive dimension, like Harvin...maybe.

And getting a proven corner would be nice. I think people here underestimate what we have, however. We're nowhere near where we were last year, obviously, but we're nowhere near as bad as we were for a few years before last year.

1. Culliver
2. Knighton
3. Harvin

01. Knighton
02. Sheard
03. Culliver

1. Brandon Browner
2. Stephen Gostkowski
3. Dante Hightower
4. Sebastian Vollmer
5. Jamie Collins

And, BTW, congratulations to Malcom Butler... our new starting CB. May you be on the verge of the first of many All Pro seasons. Next man up: Alfonzo Dennard.

Would like to see a top tier running back to call off the dogs. Suh we have handled before and does not scare us (except for the dirty plays after the whistle)...Revis will have the Jets blitzing , as will Rex and the Bills.

I think now more than ever lets take some heat off of TFB and get a good quality back to dominate time-of-possession and sustain drives throughout the game, neutralizing that rush and taking out the shut-down corner.

Lets face it, what makes us good around here is our ability to adapt. Lets change up the philosophy and not have TFB throwing the ball 50+ times. Vereen is gone and Blount is a good pounding back but a back to make people miss would be just what the doctor ordered.

Ergo I want either Murray, Bush or Spiller...

Culliver
Sheard
Harvin

I feel like it's possible to get a good run stuffing DT in the Draft, since the class is considered very good. The CB class, however, isn't, which is why we should go after Culliver.
I think we will draft a RB very early, too.

Sheard is a binkie of mine, he could be a steal.

We will need more from te offense now. We would buy Harvin low and he could became a swiss knife-kind of guy for BB (we could manage his locker room manners, too)

I have 4:

1. Terrance Knighton, obvious choice. Would help the run defense and interior pass rush tremendously, both aspects of the D that can use quite improvement


2. Reggie bush or CJ spiller. If I had the choice id pick bush being as how I think he will be slightly cheaper and slightly more durable (not that either one of them is durable)

3. Jabaal Sheard- could use another edge rusher to rotate so that nink and chandler don't have to play 95 % of the snaps. Cannot imagine if one of them went down for an extended period of time ( yes I know I jones missed almost 2 months)

4. Sign Chris Culliver/Brandon Browner or trade a 5th rounder to NO for Keenan Lewis. All 3 are relatively big corners. Obviously even with one of them there would be a downgrade at corner compared to 2014. However I would not lose sleep over a corner group of CC/BB/KL, Dennard, Arrington, Ryan, Butler, and a draft pick. Maybe not an elite secondary but still above average

1. Percy Harvin
2. Reggie bush or CJ Spiller
3. Terrance Knighton.

our offense with Lafell/edelman/Gronk/harvin/bush(spiller) would be rediculous.

and Knighton would be able to at least stop the run and put pressure on the QB
