Every year we read about all these cuts that are coming after June 1st, but guys, the fact of the matter is, it's been YEARS since that date has actually resulted in quality (or even semi-quality) veteran FA's. And with the new CBA - and resulting higher cap-ceiling - it's really, REALLY irrelevant now.
So just be aware that June 1st means even less now than it has since the FA Era began, and that those vet LB's you're hoping to have fall into the Patriots' lap at that point are just as likely to be available now. There's no true magic date anymore. If we get a guy, we get a guy. "June 1st cuts" are not worth your breath or considerable brain-power.
