Agholor is gonna be 28 while Davis is 26. Was bill not high on davis?

Seeing how much cash Bill was throwing around, it's not hard to believe players were saying they didn't want to play here so he had to overspend. I'm sure he targeted better receivers, than Agholor and Bourne, that weren't interested. It's only logical.

I'm OK with who we got. The money is insane though.

I would be hesitant in signing Dupree. I am not sure how much he benefits from teams having to spend so much energy gameplanning around TJ Watt.

Yes!

Hopefully it doesn't mean the end of Guy's tenure with the Pats.

So priorities now are QB & LB?

Nice try. Resigning all your key free agents, many who would have been at the top of the market while beginning with fairly limited cap space by signing them all to creative contracts with multiple voidable years and you can throw in Brady because of the contract restructure to make it possible and the pats have not ever done something like this. Oh, keeping the highly talented Super Bowl winning team together is pretty methodical.

It’s what they did for 15 years.

Unless the money is absolutely insane, I don't care about it this year. The Patriots are seemingly about 200 trillion dollars under the cap, so why should we care if they drop an extra million on a couple of players?

I’m sorry I’m used to frugal Bill not Dan Snyder Bill I like this Bill it’s way more exciting I would of exchanged Judon for Dupree and Agholar for Davis but they nailed it with Jonnu Smith.

Yeah, if they add Guy to what they've already done, there is performance and depth at DT.

The money is important context we don't know, but Anderson is someone I've wanted the Pats to sign for a very long time. One of my favorite signings of the day.

Would also add OL depth and future starting FS (draft).

It probably does. Allen probably gone too.
Godshauk Anderson Cowart is the rotation. Wise or an addition/draftee playing DT on passing downs.

They’re gonna be better in 2021. The only team i can see maybe challenging them will be the packers. I don’t trust those teams in the nfc west even the rams

You assume that. But there is no way to know that for sure. Now that Shaq Barrett has his deal will he get soft? Will Brady start to show his age? Or will Gronk totally fall apart at 32? Will the team be able to deal with their success and opposing teams looking to player at a higher level now that they are the champs?

You can argue that the NFC is worse with teams losing players, but the Bucs have done little to nothing to make themselves better than 2020 at this point. So you are just speculating. I am just speculating which way it can go. None of us know at this point.

Can this Chicago being hot on Trubisky get more attention please?
This could be a Jimmy G signal.

A Pats team plane was seen in Minnesota hmm...

Which WRs ?

Priority is still adding a WR1. Trade Myers Byrd for late round picks. Both are jags that only looked good because the Pats needed someone to throw to.
