Could be, here, but he shouldn't be.Eddie Pleasant is a viable S4 candidate.
Good ster, and payed an average of about 20 snaps a game on d as a SS. Could be a backup big nickel guy.
Boston would of been a very good signing.Free agent FS Tre Boston to sign with Cardinals, according to Adam Schefter. Sad.

Nah mean I ain't really know yo.What did the English language do to you, to deserve this treatment?
How much did ARZ give him? If it’s under 4m, I may be inclined to agree. If it’s under 3m, I’ll consider it a very good signing.Boston would of been a very good signing.

Even with paying our 3 starters, I still think it made some sense to prepare for injury and attempt to upgrade the S4 position, but I highly doubt that Bill would agree with me.
Well, as much as I would like to see an improvement in the depth and possibly player for the future at a reasonable cost (Boston had 5 INTs last year), I do think that you’re right. There’s no way Belichick was going to dedicate more money at the position after recently extending both Chung and Harmon.Not a chance money wise at the S4 spot with the money tied up to the other three.

But...if it’s somehow under 3m dollars a year, I’m still going to be annoyed. Ultimately, I don’t think Bill saw much reason to spend any money at a position that has three quality players (and Richards).
I think he is. He’s been officially blacklisted.I just wonder if Reid is untouchable at this point even playing at the vet minimum.

I agree with you that Reid is pretty darned good, but I’m not as sure about calling Tre Boston a bum safety. He had five picks and eight passes defended, last year. He’s not too shabby.The guy can flat out play. It’s a shame he can’t get a job over these bums safeties that are signing.

Not sure if Numero1 is referring to Tre Boston or, more likely than not, to useless fodder like Eddie Pleasant.I agree with you that Reid is pretty darned good, but I’m not as sure about calling Tre Boston a bum safety. He had five picks and eight passes defended, last year. He’s not too shabby.
Only four of the 28 teams to have reached the conference championship game since 2011 had non-QBs who accounted for more than 10 percent of their cap
Here's a good explainer of the Aaron Donald situation. He's holding out currently:

Here's an interesting stat from that article:
i.e. teams that overpay any single player other than their QB tend to do worse. Of course, 7 of those 28 teams were the Pats. But that's worth keeping in mind when you hear the (misguided) argument that "The Patriots never pay their players".
