Hightower re-signs with NE!!!

Not open for further replies.
Hightower should be grateful that he was deemed worthy of continuing to play for the GOAT franchise and fanbase. Patriots did him a huge favor.

Lucky guy.

Brady wouldn't have 5 rings without HT.
 
Well now we know he's not a muffin man.

 
Good to have him back! Important cog in this system.

But I think the Jets are the big winners because they got to take home all the leftovers from Hightower's birthday cupcakes.
 
Big money, the apex predator franchise, and he ate some free goddamned snacks? Everything coming up Hightower!
 
great news!!

now if they could resign butler!!
 
Chandler Jones - $51M guaranteed
Jamie Collins - $26.5M guaranteed
Dont'a Hightower - $19M guaranteed

Either Hightower has a really risky injury history, his position just isn't one that suits most teams, or other teams are really stupid. Probably a combination of the three.

The Jones trade in particular makes a ton of sense now. Most everyone here have long believed Hightower is more valuable to the Patriots than Jones, money aside. BB a year ahead of the game on that one as usual. Insanity that Jones got that mega-deal in comparison.
 
If Butler re-signs...

2 #1 CBs
2 #1 WRs
GOAT TE
GOAT QB
GOAT Coach

This is the most loaded team in our history. More loaded than '07.
 
Congrats to HT and good to have him back. There was always little doubt in my mind, anyway. Even without Butler, this defense is going to be nasty next season. With Butler? It may be the finest defense Belichick has ever fielded. But I think he's gone in an attempt to try to recoup day 1-2 picks. Either way, the payday for Hightower is well deserved.
 
Hooray! Now we just have to straighten out the Butler situation and I would say we are good to go for the upcoming season!

F Goodell.
 
Whats left now IMO.

1 more DE (either draft or FA)
1 more LB (doesn't need to be great and you could go with what you have right now)

Besides that maybe upgrade center. Still have something like 20M left not counting what you will save with Amendola.

It's the Jets.

They have too many cupcakes.

Anyone who thinks Butler has a future on this team is beyond delusional. Butler's fate was sealed when Gilmore was signed. Belichick is not going to pay him also.

Butler seems to me an emotional guy. His feelings were likely hurt with gilmore signing and getting paid "his money."
