Someone named Moss at wide receiver sounds good.Some nice guys listed here. To replace Amendola, I wouldn't mind the ancient Santana Moss. Not quite the blocker of Amendola but is superior in every other way at a significantly cheaper contract. I'm hoping the vet would have no problem picking up the playbook.
Suh!?
I'm pretty sure Jones, Hightower, and Branch are under contract already.The Pats have numerous players to get re-signed:
Revis - Long term re-structure.
McCourty - Long term extension.
Gostkowski - Long term deal.
Hightower - Long term extension.
Jones - Long term extension.
Vereen - Long term deal
Ayers - Long term deal
Other players who are free agents (of one type or another):
Brandon Bolden - has taken numerous STs penalties. Can be replaced.
Chris White
Alan Branch - I'd like to see him re-signed.
Jonathan Casillas - I'd like to see him re-signed.
Patrick Chung
James Develin - I'd like to see him re-signed
Sealver Siliga - I'd like to see him re-signed.
Steven Ridley - with Blount, Gray, Gaffney, and White, the backfield is pretty full. You add Vereen to that and I'm not sure there is a spot for Ridley.
Players whom the Pats need to make decisions on:
Danny Amendola : Would save $3.6M if cut
Nate Solder : Either a 3 year extension or cut. Would save 6.98M if cut.
Sebastian Vollmer : Not sure what can be done here...
Dan Connolly : Should retire because of concussions.
Ryan Wendell: should be relegated to a reserve role or let go.
Jerod Mayo: I see him back with nothing being done to his contract.
Vince Wilfork: I see him signing an extension for 2 more years.
That is 22 players currently on the roster or IR (in the case of Ridley). That's nearly 42% of the roster that needs to be addressed..
Why would they cut him ? If he is moved he will be traded... a player like Gordon on a rookie deal for year ? I am sure somebody will hand out a nice pick..
Jones and Hightower will be here next season but an extension will be great for both parties.I'm pretty sure Jones, Hightower, and Branch are under contract already.
Rotoworld says he signed a four year contractJones and Hightower will be here next season but an extension will be great for both parties.
Branch is a FA in 2015.
