I'm with you. I'm struggling with the motivation the Pats have in doing this deal at the structure that is being reported.
Solder is a solid player and clearly the Pats like him. I'm not convinced he is a top 5 LT in this league but having a player worse than Solder at the position could derail the entire season.
The entire offense rests on a once-in-a-lifetime quarterback who is probably the best of all time (just compare his receivers with Montana's). Although he has stayed remarkably injury free so far, that amazing quarterback is now 38, when most players become more injury prone. Trying to scrimp on the LT position that protects that amazing quarterback would be dumb under the circumstances, and one thing that BB is not, is dumb.
