Not sure if someone already responded to this, if so sorry for piling on but he moved down 8 picks... dont pretend he gave up a second rounder.

I would love to bring in Lacy, wouldnt mind a 2 or 3 year deal either. Receiver I think we just need a developmental one in the draft but the Pats seem to think otherwise since being connected to all these big names. LB im hoping we resign Hightower. Hoping for Haasan Reddick in the draft...

Hopefully we bring Hightower back. At 32 im hoping for Haasan Reddick. If we trade for 12 im hoping for Taco Charlton. If we bring back Hightower, all we really need on defense are Edge Rushers, and maybe a Linebacker. Offensively we only really need a big running back, and a developmental...

Harmon is actually really good. We got a great deal on him. That said however, I agree, im not completely taking safety off the board. Especially a strong safety. Who knows how long Chung has left and he could be upgraded too.

OL not a real concern. They are all young, especially the interior so they are still developing. Only thing we may need is a young tackle to be a backup or potentially replace solder next year if he doesnt resign.

Wow, whats wrong with him... Raiders where gonna have one hell of a pass rush with Mack, Smith, Irvin.

Harmon is awesome. This is great news. $5M/year max value is a REALLY good deal for him.

Not to worried about Blount either. Im a huge fan of his but despite his big season I dont think he is that special. Lacy would intrigue me. Maybe Latavius Murray. Lots of good backs in the draft as well. I think we will be okay at RB.

Wow, Martellus replacement

Then the patriots would most likely have already signed him, or they could match the offer if he agreed to a below market deal.

I'm not speculating on what he is worth, I never gave a number... All I am saying is that a team would have to pay Butler what he thinks he is worth for him to accept the offer sheet. Now giving a player what he is worth, whatever that number may be, and then throwing in a first round pick on...

Lol. IDK whats so hard to understand about paying somebody more than their worth is overpaying. Butler would not agree to a contract that is for less than he is worth.

No actually, it is a fact. Paying somebody what he is worth (the contract a team would be offering) + more (the draft pick) is overpay. The more would be the overpay. By definition paying someone more than he is worth is overpaying. EDIT: And Butler wouldnt accept a contract that is less than...

I agree that he is underpaid but I dont think the patriots should do anything about it. I look at an NFL contract as an investment. When I give you x amount of guaranteed money and y amount salary I am taking on a risk that you could end up sucking or getting injured (EDIT: Or killing...

Paying somebody what he is worth, and then a 1st round pick on top of that is in fact overpay.

I think a lot of Butler, but for a team to acquire him they would have to overpay by a 1st round pick. Butler would only sign an offer sheet that gives him what he wants which is at least market value. Then the first round pick on top of that. I dont see anyone being so desperate to have Butler...

Not like that, especially with all the other corners available via FA, Trade, & Draft.

Why? Do you really think someone is gonna give him a market value contract AND give the patriots their first round pick? Lots of good corners in this draft class as well. 0% chance we lose Butler this year, unless someone gets stupid and Belechick prefers the first round pick.

It does not concern me AT ALL. Do you really think someone will pay Butler what he wants to make (he has to agree to the offer sheet another team makes) AND give us a first round pick? If they lowball the offer Butler wont sign it and if he did sign it then we could match and get a good deal on...

Very underrated player. Big reason the running game struggled in 2015 when he was out. Glad to have him back!
