They could give him a no signing bonus contract and then cut him at the latest possible date which would still avoid a cap ahit.
He needs to be taught a lesson. Rub his face in his poor decision to leave.
Why be a douche --- it is counterproductive. The Patriots have established a good reputation of being a place where veterans who have a couple of decent years of situational play left in them are welcomed and will be treatly well. It increases that team's talent base, stabilizes the locker room, increases the aggregate hunger as these guys want rings, and probably improves the talent/cap spent ratio as they are willing to sign for a touch less than they would otherwise take because they know that the Pats offer an excellent chance at a ring, and the environment is good.
Why piss that reputation and its attendant benefits away?
