I really don’t understand this one. You beef up the line only to leave C to a mediocre player? Strange.

honestly center was high mediocre as it was WITH andrews

Riddick explains how Patriots are putting on ‘an absolute clinic' in free agency

The New England Patriots wasted no time upgrading their roster in NFL free agency once the legal tampering period opened Monday, and one ESPN analyst loves the team’s approach.

Says BB is doing what he always does, building the team to attack from the inside out, front to back.

Dolphins takingAdam Butler

No, it's called you attacking me with a sledgehammer after I made a mistake. I admit when I make mistakes. It's obvious you have some sort of mental problem, but that's ok, covid restrictions are getting to a lot of us. Still can't explain how we're going to afford Russell WIlson? Got it...

I don't know what you two are arguing about. But if you're gonna post multiple one word responses to people just saying "Wrong" and then it turns out you're actually wrong, what do you expect to happen?

 

[resdubwhite]

Butler gone. damn

 

[long distance]

True but he's still good (#45). He had a 74% catch rate (Agholor - 59%, Bourne - 66%). He's a bargain @ $6M for one year.

Agholor's low catch rate may be due to him being used as a deep threat with higher risk passes.

Per Pro Football Focus, Agholor had 11 catches on 23 targets of 20 or more air yards for 444 yards and six touchdowns. Not quite on Hill’s level, but a lot closer than you may think. Last season, Hill had 13 deep catches on 33 targets for 475 yards and eight touchdowns.

TE Hunter Henry and WR Nelson Agholor give Patriots indefensible potential

When looking at the Patriots' impending free agents, you can spin it one of two ways: Either Bill Belichick is "overspending" to cover up mistakes he's made in the draft, or he's reacting to what was essentially a waste year in 2020 by loading up at positions of need. I…

Has Karras elevated his game in the recent past? The Karras I remember is a very solid backup but not someone I would plug in at starter and call the position filled.

He was rated very well by PFF last season. Only two sacks the entires season plus he knows are system Austin Blythe FA of Rams might be better.

Karras will be a backup center taking over for Ferentz, which is what we need.

Sounds like Meyers is going to need to loosen up his arm this year..

[Ross12]

Guess that'll need to be looked at in the draft. QB, DL, OL, probably WR, maybe RB, maybe K...

 

[MoreBellhorn]

Andrews is most likely looking for too much. I’m fine with Karras at center and maybe drafting one in the later rounds.

 

[WeezyFbaby]

Seems affordable, really underrated player for us

 

[Ring 6]

That is horsecrap today Cousin.

How? You think it’s fair to judge someone guilty without proof? Why would you think today is any different with respect to one if the most basic rights of our nation?

 

[Ring 6]

Meh. He really really struggles against the run.

 

[long distance]

Well eff, will be the weak point of our otherwise filthy line

Love Andrews, like this move: bridge/b-up C & DRAFT

Its time pats get C in the Draft and this is the perfect year. I bet Bill loves at least 6. All physically dominant
Top 4 will go relatively close together 2-3 rd which is great option to wait, move around the board and get some add value.

Invest the Andrews $ in Wynn / tackle of the future..

 

[Ring 6]

Well Andrews is mediocre.

 

[notex]

Quiet today....

I think center position will be complemented with the draft.
