PATRIOTS NEWS Official 2024 Free Agency Thread - Day 1

[jmt57]

Kind of shocked that it's been 30 min and the only free agent signing so far has been DeAndre Swift. Everything else has been re-signings.

Maybe because technically this is just a 48-hour negotiation period? Players could conceivably back out of any deal made today.

Teams cannot officially sign a player from another team until Wednesday - so any announcement is going to come from an agent, player, or reporter that they leaked that info to. The new team isn't really in a position to make that type of announcement -or the NFL may have told the 32 teams not to do so? I don't know for sure, just speculating.

Wow so Dallas is really getting Henry.
That’s interesting.

 

[BadMoFo]

who?

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

who?

Pretty steep for a guy who just hadn’t done much prior to his breakout season last year.

 

[oceansizer]

Wilkins, Tyrod Smith, or Patrick Queen please.

[The Gr8est]

Does he have anything left?

 

[Guts]

Does he have anything left?

Probably going to the Jete honestly

 

[farn]

Less than 15 games played in last three seasons.

 

[BadMoFo]

Does he have anything left?

 

[TheRainMaker]

He was franchise tagged.

You have to catch on some news

When you're late on the news....

 

[jmt57]

who?

I wasn't familiar with him either, but here's what I found:
2020: mostly on ST (30% of defensive snaps)
2021: 8 sacks despite missing five games (starter in other 12)
2022: missed half the season
2023: healthy again (15 starts); 12.5 sacks, 52 tackles

Pretty impressive when he is healthy.

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Does he have anything left?

13 total games the last 3 seasons. Id stay clear unless its super low

 

[Love The Drake]

Well no news is good news as Ridley, Brown and Gave Davis are still out there.

 

[PowerRunRevival]

I'd rather sign Ridley to $15m for 2 years than trade for Tee Higgins. No way am I trading for a $25m contract, unless I'm trading a 5th.

I think Ridley is going to go for more than that. Maybe he goes for 2/30 to a contending team but Pats will need to be far and away highest bidder to sign him imo

 

[TheRainMaker]

Contracts are getting so out of hand, it seems like anyone is overpaid.

 

[Ross12]

Might be interested in signing him + Tyron Smith. Both are older guys who just need to stay healthy, and you can get on a discount on shorter term deals. If they both hold up then you are 2 deep on great LTs, if one gets hurt then the other is fresh. If both somehow get hurt then, I mean, them's the breaks.

Dude, you are probably the only person pining for Davis here.

With so few good LTs on the market, I'm not sure you're going to get a good enough deal on two of them.
