What would it takes to get akiem hicks back in a pats jersey? What type of pick

....and even if Dak falters, I may be one of the few who think- while made of glass, Romo can still be a pretty decent QB.

I have always liked Romo. He is interesting to watch but he's come up short in many big games.
If Dallas puts itself in a good position in NFC heading to playoffs the only way they can screw it up is replacing Prescott with Romo to win those games. Nothing Jerry Jones does surprises me.

Joe Thomas cap hits if traded:

2016: (9/17) * 8.3 million: 4.4 million
2017: 8.8 million
2018: 8.8 million
.

Just a slight correction. Thomas' cap hits for 2017, 2018 are 10M.

re Cannon they're pretty happy with him (and we should be as well):
Dante Scarnecchia cites Marcus Cannon's improved technique

I liked how Fleming played as well both LT & RT.

Cannon and Vollmer are 2017 FAs. Could move Solder to RT and draft a swing tackle next draft.

Cannon's playing too well at RT to bench though.

Funny part is neither seems to want to move him. Thomas or the team. If I'm Thomas, I'd want to at 32, try out a contender. For the team, by the time they may (never will but bear with me) be good, he will be retired.

Stupid. Just move on and get into a better position for both.

except that branch is playing at a near all-pro level and the young guys don't cost much, there's not much of an upgrade with him

and don't go by what a guy can do against the viking OL

Note regarding cap if we do not make a trade:

Miguel's UNOFFICIAL 2017 Patriots Salary Cap Information Page

2017 cap space: Projected 60 million + 9.5 million in 2016 rollover (Cap Space=$9,577,422 (@patscap) | Twitter) + 6.5 million in Amendola cut (or less if restructured) = about 75 million in cap space.

We do not need 75 million in cap space with our FA list imo:

2017 NFL Free Agents Tracker

Something has to give. We are in a prime spot to take on a contract for now & the future with our cap space/picks.

Hope we make a move.

You're in for a big letdown. The Patriots will sign very few players at market value. They
would rather carry over cap money into 2018.

Ugh Browns willing to deal Joe Hadden too.

He had a good run in the playoffs in2014. They would have been in the NFCCG hasn't they screwed Dez on the catch.

 

[Joey007]

We probably won't get Haden, otherwise he would've been included in the Collins deal.

As long as the air pressure in his tires were within NFL specifications, he will not be punished.

I believe the Richardson standard is 1 game.

 

[NG Pats Fan]

Ugh Browns willing to deal Joe Hadden too.

And we couldn't even get him in a Jamie Collins deal?

 

[Froob]

Doubt we have the space for that and our corners aren't that bad.

 

[Keyser Söze]

Yeah seriously. Would have made it sting less.

 

[PatriotReign]

I'd take Shazier off the Steelers as well, but a they won't trade him and he can never stay healthy.

Apparently he thought it was 4/20 and not 11/1.

If they take on that contract, Paying Malcolm in 2016, spring of 2017 becomes mandatory.

 

[Sciz]

It doesn't make any sense to trade draft picks for the opportunity to overpay Joe Haden.
