I think Harmon is a guaranteed goner. He'll probably get a bit overpaid but, he's a good player.
Harmon is worth a lot to the patriots.
As with McCourty, the question is how much.

Your lips to god's ear.Agreed.
However, it seems likely that there will be more extensions during the season. Guys like Harmon, Cannon and Long seem like possibilities.
I thought Ryan was incredibly overmatched today; that inside slant was beating him like a drum. Coleman wasn't much better, but every big play they had seemed to have Ryan in coverage, 3-5 yards away every time. Obviously the mobile QB didn't help his cause but we see Taylor again and Wilson vs Seattle so he has to get with the program. Obviously the D stepped up with the SB49 gameplan to bracket and contain Wilson (we did the same today), the D just didn't have the O's help today.
Unless he gives the Patriots a really good deal he is a goner. I think Collins, Hightower, Bennett, and Sheard should be the top priorities. We might be able to get Bennett cheaper than we think since he seems to like it here and other teams know he can be a big problem. If we lose Ryan in free agency we still have Cyrus and Rowe who can hopefully step up next year and be a solid #2.
Someone is gonna pay him to be a starter and it's not gonna be the patsHarmon is worth a lot to the patriots.

Today was a day to remember Logan Ryan is an OK #2 CB with some good games and some terrible games.
Tyrod Taylor **** on his face today throwing to whomever he was covering.
And the game plan. Let me ask everyone hating on Ryan's play this: If the game plan is for him to play off, allowing the short slant rather than give up a big play to an offense that struggles completing drives, and it results in allowing 16 points but a lot of those short passes get completed, why are we crying?So on Friday, we had an article talking about how Logan Ryan is good because his film study tells him what routes to take away. Against the Bills, the goal was obviously to defend the deep ball, because that's what had worked in Taylor's best game, against the Jets. After the game, Robert Woods said that they specifically added slants to the gameplan because they hadn't really used them before. Those slants were really effective since Ryan was trying to take away the deep passes.
So all you have to do is surprise Ryan with what he hasn't seen from you before. That's a lot easier in week 4 with a new OC in his second game than it is going to be for most teams as the season goes on.
Where is Eric Rowe???
