Belichick's had plenty of cap space in some years.
Pats will offer Brady 3yr/$80M
32 days to go.....
Until the legalized tampering window opens, it is tampering to express an interest in a player under contract with another team. That includes contacting a player (or his agent) to express an interest and it certainly includes throwing around actual offers.Having discussions about players is what a team should be doing at this point in the off season. How is that sort of S.O.P. tampering?
Draft the next Diggs.
Isnt there anyone in the NE region that knows how to draft the position?

Raiders reportedly ready to offer Brady two-year, $60M deal
How can these teams get away with this? Pats need to shut this noise down and filing tampering charges
I won’t be surprised if we hear the patriots weren’t willing to go higher then 20 1 year not fully guaranteed.It's not like the Pats wouldn't match 2/60. But Brady will want assurances that he's not coming back to another situation where the team is ill equipped to compete in the playoffs. BB will need to reload the Pats offense and Brady will want more influence on that process.

Wow. I’m not so sure they’ll go 30m for one year, let alone two. I guess we’ll find out.It's not like the Pats wouldn't match 2/60.

Maybe Brady can pick out a stud WR in this draft? Nothing to lose giving Tommy a shot at it.
I don’t understand how people, including Pat’s fans, don’t understand how if we give Brady 30 mill a year (it’ll be 36.5 if we give him that before March 16th, 43 mill if after), we won’t have the cap space to give him the weapons he ALLEGEDLY is demanding. The people on TV, I get it, they have no clue about our cap space. But c’mon Pat’s fans !It's not like the Pats wouldn't match 2/60. But Brady will want assurances that he's not coming back to another situation where the team is ill equipped to compete in the playoffs.

I think he’s gonna be a good one. Sure there would be growing pains. Oddly enough, if Brady goes elsewhere, they’d actually have the cap space to go get offensive weapons in free agency.The interesting thing I keep hearing is the Pats are high on Stidham...we are dismissing him but we don't see him on the practice field like Bill does.
That may very well be true.The interesting thing I keep hearing is the Pats are high on Stidham...we are dismissing him but we don't see him on the practice field like Bill does.
That’s the crazy thing though, say they go with Stidham, they’d actually have the cap space to sign weapons, this roster wouldn’t be “this roster” if that makes sense.That may very well be true.
I would be shocked if Stidham won 4 games with this roster though.

NOTHING TO LOSE? Well, nothing other control of the team!
Why not let Brady choose a new GM who would answer to Brady on all personnel decisions?
Belichick will NOT give Brady the power to choose players in the draft or in free agency. No, not even a "wink" "wink".
The very MOST that Brady could get would be for Brady to wait until the last day and sign after Belichick has made commitments to acceptable players during the last 3 days of the season. And, IMHO, this will, and should not, happen. This would mean that Belichick would not be able to compete for quarterbacks during the 3 day period, or even compete for other player who might be consistent with a non-Brady team, than one with Brady.
