Wow! Have to think he'll stay
While not a guaranteed lock, it sure sends a message as to how highly the Pats think of him.
They will continue to search for LBs in FA to bring them to TC. The only thing possibly missing is a fast cover LB with lateral speed. From the guys “we“ scouted and wanted they brought in Langi. He is big and fast, ex RB, ILB&OLB, with good lateral speed and great attitude (some had him go in the 4th round). Still very raw so hopefully he can improve in coverage; he certainly has the potential. He was misused as ED in 2016 so its hard to asses where he is as potential cover LB at the moment.
Here his 2015 film (look at his attitude and reactions when his teammates make successful plays!):
Last but not least, he is a great ST prospect. My feeling is he makes the roster.
Also what other teams think. Could make roster as ST (Bolden) until he cracks lineup as ILB.While not a guaranteed lock, it sure sends a message as to how highly the Pats think of him.
Almost the same measurables as Roberts but Langi is almost 20lbs heavier and 3 inches taller
It's not your imagination :Maybe it's me but they seem to be doling out more $ to UFAs this year than last year.
Me too. We all knew so NFL teams had to know. I'm surprised none of them drafted him just because they could.Langi's money is actually expected. What I don't understand is why nobody drafted him knowing how strongly BB felt about him.

115 k is nothing on the cap.
I think the 115k was an incentive to get him here but has no impact on him staying.
Well, its guaranteed. That's more gtd than Butler, Fleming, Van Noy or Bolden have at the moment. More telling is that they didn't draft any other LB and if they don't bring a good vet (like McKendricks f.e.) he certainly has great chance to make the team. Its the least “locked“ position at the moment..
And it is on the cap (not much though):
