Free Agents – But at what price

For all the people that are upset that the Pats have not made a move in Free Agency yet, who did you want them to get AT THE PRICE the player signed for? Most of the contracts are f-ing ridicules. The worst offenders by far are the Redskins (big surprise). They give out massive deals to anyone who is a “nameâ€.

I, like most of you would be happy if the Pats brought in a player – any player – to get excited about but not at the insane prices that are getting tossed around.

This list below is not a complete list but it is accurate based on info I could find.

Marlon McCree, S – Destination: Chargers (5 years, $16 million)
Corey Chavous, S – Destination: Rams (5 years)
Dexter Jackson, S - Destination: Bengals 4 years, $7.6 million)

Larry Tripplett, DT - Destination: Bills (5 years, $18 million)
Maake Kemoeatu, DT - Destination: Panthers (5 years, $23 million)
Gerard Warren, DT - Destination: Broncos (6 years)
Ted Washington, DT – Destination: Cleveland (2 years, $7 million)

It's almost all silly money. I can't wait to see the cap room list in a week. Let's go, Clayton There will be bargains to be had soon and guess who'll be the rich man walking into Wal Mart ? We will . . .

I agree! Some of these salaries are rediculous. I see the Pats doing what they did last year, especially in the CB position last year. They will sign about 10-12 mid range players, intead of 4-5 high end players and see who works the best. Add that to their 9 draft picks, not including compensatory picks, and I think they will be just fine. It is a bit frustrating though. Not in seeing all these players getting gobbled up, I am just curious as to what BB and Pioli's plans are.

I'd take Finneran for 4 years/8 million, also see how much dough Sam Adams wants & re-sign Willie.

Finneran is long gone back to Atlanta
