So Bennett and Marcus Peters were given away for peanuts thus far and we didnt want in even for Bennett?
Neither player was a good fit for the Patriots in 2018.

Salary cap
Bennett is dirt cheap must have been deemed not a fit.
Wonder how they will handle this cap wise.
I’m doubting that they will be retaining many of their own FA’s, which includes guys like Robinson, Blount, and Bradham.Last I checked, the Eagles were about $10M over the cap.
Rumor is that they'll now try to trade Vinny Curry. Then, they'll need to cut a bunch of player and restructure the contracts of several others.

7.5 mil base salary is not dirt cheap. It’s not crazy but it’s not nothing.

A 5th for Bennett seems pretty cheap. In the Superbowl, we had a hard time blocking him and every time I watch Seattle, he seems to make plays.
Sooo we were in the running.
Eagles defeat us yet again.
More than likely just due diligence. Considering what it took to get him, the Patriots couldn't have been TOO interested.
