Blount was RFA and signed a 1 year deal in March -$150K workout bonus, $350K for reporting to training camp bonus. So if the Pats let him in the doors at camp they will on the hook for $500K.
Blount was a terror in college, he ripped up the Pac-10. Unfortunately he was the same after the whistle blew - he punched a defender on the field. He had some anger issues off the field too. He was 2nd round talent at worst but had become so toxic he wasn't touched during his draft. He performed well in Tampa but he wasn't Schiano's guy having been drafted before he got there. Certainly Doug Martin is more versatile than Blount but Blount just dropped off the face of the earth this year and like Talib was handed to the Pats for BB to rehabilitate.
It's interesting to ask why BB would want a guy that Schiano, a BB confidant and someone BB helped land an NFL job, didn't have any use for?
4.6 YPC NFL career average is nothing to sniff at. BJGE got $9m from the Bengals for less than 4yds/carry.
Brandon Bolden better get his ***** together because Blount is the same kind of back but faster.
