Bodden deal done - 4 years, $22M ($10M GTD) [merged]

Re: Lombardi: Pats have re-signed Bodden [Agent: "Rumors are premature at best"]

Lombardi is about as well connected as it gets. It is only not official because Bodden is most likely on a plane on his way back from houston to sign. His agent is just telling the truth that "nothing is official". My guess is he verbally agreed and is on his way back. I trust Lombardi.

Ok, Schefter saying we've 'reached agreement in principle' with Bodden.

Same here. Lombardi knows and Keels is trying to avoid the chaos of twitter news reaching the Texans before his phone call. Or keeping a tiny window open for a sweep-in offer.

I have yet to see Lombardi blow one on these breaking news stories - not to mention he has a relationship with Belichick - so while it's not as good as ten minutes ago, it still looks real good from here.

Boddeold them he was going to re-signt with the Pats, it got leaked out, and his agent is just trying to hold out for a few more sheckles. Bodden will be back. The Ppats have done an outstanding job of taking care of their own this off-season. They still have 11 draft picks, plus of course, the Raiders #1 (and the Saints #7) next year.

yeah, I think Bodden told the Texans he was re-signing with the Pats, and that's how it got leaked out. Keels is in damage control to hold for a few more dimes....

I am reposting this...

Per Twitter:

AlvinKeels Leigh has always indicated his desire to return to New England but nothing is official and probably will not be until 2mrw at the earliest

It seems like he is saying he will be re-signing, but the deal will be done tomorrow.

Shefter is pretty much the rubber stamp these days.
I like the butler/bodden combo going into the future.

Schefter reported his own birth, he is the prophet.

Do not doubt him.

Bodden-Butler. That's going to be a sick duo for years to come. NO MORE REVOLVING DOOR AT CB WOO!

Re: Lombardi: Pats have re-signed Bodden [Agent: "Rumors are premature at best"]

I really hope this goes through, Butler and Bodden sound good enough to get us into position in the next few years, assuming we upgrade our front seven.
