Glad Bill will have the room to extend some more special teamers.
There should be some positive changes in the months of March and April. We’ve got some nice draft capital and a few bucks to play around with in free agency. Time to cut the losses and move forward with some better talent and better deals.Weird season to make a joke about not needing well paid special teamers
Mind you, you could field an entire high end unit with the money flushed down the drain on useless players like Clayborn and Shelton
Pats will have 20M to play with and no LT, no starting caliber DT, their best DL (by a mile) unsigned, and a number of other holes without internal replacement options
Can’t see any way they field a top 5-7 roster without aggressive changes. Certainly doable but Belichick and Caserio need to make some tough moves with their current guys and have a good year in the mid tier veteran FA market.

Give that 20 M to Flowers and you're not in terrible shape. Probably going to have go DT high in the draft again. You got Wynn for LT possibily. That's before any restructures.Weird season to make a joke about not needing well paid special teamers

SBB, are you honestly entertaining the idea of giving Trey Flowers 20m dollars AAV? I think something in the 12-14m dollar range is much more appropriate. That’s the kind of money you pay to elite game-changing defenders. Flowers is a great player to have and he makes this defense better, but he’s not worth anything close to that kind of payday.Give that 20 M to Flowers and you're not in terrible shape.

Realistically even if Flowers got 20 aav it would be less year 1. So hopefully we can resign him and still get a few things. Then restructures can get us in season money.

I think $12-$14M is more than reasonable and go DT with the top pick to get the run D fixed.
Dexter Lawerence is the guy we need.
Love Lawrence, but I think they would have to trade up for him if they wanted him. There are a TON of quality DTs in this draft that might be in our range. Derrick Brown, Davis (might be too tall), Wilkins, etc.
