Apparently the Patriots were in the Marvin Jones sweepstakes.

He wanted the $$ over winning and a bit cheaper

Mcclain resigned with Dallas im sorry.
Were on to Zach Brown

 

[Deus Irae]

Outdone by Quinn he must of felt like he had to win and upped the ante.
At least they are trying to get weapons for BB.
Jones money over Championships

The Lions need secondary and OL/DL help, so they rush out and get a WR.

Plus ca change.....

Why is he signing yet another one-year deal? No interest in long-term security or what?

Well that's not gonna go over well on here... Bill is about to get skewered.

I was a little surprised by that too.

Maybe, but I would've been pissed if BB paid Jones $8 million a year. That's too much and would've pissed off Edelman...

Why? He's not that good. They can survive without overpaying for Marvin Jones.

I'm hoping Powell goes for the money too and signs elsewhere.

1 year 5 mill for mcclain

Surprised the Patriots are being linked to all these mediocre recievers that are going to get top of the market contracts. Jones, Sanu. Lets just hit on a few draft picks for once.

If releasing Amendola meant Matthews and Sanu I pull that trigger in a heartbeat

No thanks. Sanu is a JAG and so is Matthews. I will give it time but the rumors about guys like Powell and Sanu really disappoint me. Adding a bunch of jags sucks.

Why the surprise? The team needs WR's and they don't exactly have a stellar record at drafting them.

Exactly, just feels like their plan is be cheap and only look for bargain bin FAs.

I always give him the benefit of the doubt as well as time for the dust to settle but right now I'm not liking the rumors.They need to bolster this offense and so far they are looking at adding depth not impact players.

I will be really disappointed if that's the approach.

FA always makes Pats fans want to jump off bridge..same story every year

 

[patsinthesnow]

Paying 5 M a year for Sanu/Mathews = fail IMO
Paying 7-8M for Weddle = value, steal

If we are going to pay in FA, pay for the elite talent that may be undervalued due to age and a non-sexy position.

Please pass on the near JAG-level WRs. Doesn't have to be Weddle but who else could be a steal? Who's the next Sheard?
