That article is Sept. 2022. We talked a lot about Smith's restructuring on this Board when it happened.

We look at the 200 best players set to hit the free-agent market this offseason with free agency less than a week away.
Spielberger’s article with contract projections for the top 100 free agents. Here are the Patriots players, and you can all look up your external targets too.
7. WR Jakobi Meyers: Four years, $64 million ($16M per year); $40 million total guaranteed
31. CB Jonathan Jones: Two years, $11 million ($5.5M per year); $7 million total guaranteed
56. OT Isaiah Wynn: Two years, $21 million ($10.5M per year); $13.75 million total guaranteed
94. S Devin McCourty: One year, $8 million; $7 million total guaranteed
Seems low for Jones. At that point, the Patriots should just bring him back and worry about where he’s actually playing later (outside, slot, and FS all valid options). I do agree that somebody is going to pay Wynn decent money due to the scarcity of tackles.
Definitely want to keep Jones. Probably Jakobi, the other two, NO.2023 NFL Free Agent Rankings: Top 200 players set to enter free agency | NFL News, Rankings and Statistics | PFF

i'd keep Jakobi...
That's just too much for Jakobi Meyers. If he had any speed at all, maybe you could justify it. If someone wants to pay him that much, I wish him the best of luck elsewhere.2023 NFL Free Agent Rankings: Top 200 players set to enter free agency | NFL News, Rankings and Statistics | PFF

Kirk is way better and more consistent sorry...Meyers is not worth $15 Mill BB the GM will not give him that.
Also 25 TD's to 8 to date C'mon dude Kirk > Meyers.
$21m is more than $15m the last time I checked.
I see Rookies in this upcoming Draft who have more upside than Meyers and will be better and cheaper.
Greg Bedard stole my thunder.. lol I've been mentioning on here... we need a lock down corner... that just like on offense would allow everyone to play in thier respective positions, we should be all in on Ramsey.. that move makes all the sense in the world..
Thank you, I totally forgot about that. It was early in the season. That certainly means smith will be here. Hopefully o'Brien can get something out of him.. he's to talented a player to be a part time contributing TE
What Myers has is the ability to run routes and get open.. he has amazing hands.. it's nice to have elite speed and athletic ability like say Hardman, but he can't get open and route run.. Myers can. He's a guy thay came up in the system I see his value here in NE rather than any place else.. I can see a 3y/24 million deal for Myers
I would pay up to 4/50, if it's going to be more than that, good luck elsewhere. 3/24 would be an absolute bargain.
Bledsoe is in the mix as well. They really like him. If Peppers resigns I think the 4 safeties are set.
Yeah I went with the bargain, because the patriots know his value is higher here than any where esle.. so the 3/24 is what he's likely going to be offered.. Unless another team sees him differently.. that's typically how the patriots do business with thier own players unfortunately.. Edelman was humbled when we was a free agent finding out he was more valuable here than elsewhere..
I'm not so sure, I'd really like to see a true deep free safety. Those guys are excellent in their roles, but none of them are rangey, cover guys.
Agreed! We have an excellent mix of safeties.. If we can somehow pry Ramsey in here this defense goes from good to great!
