The Patriots are currently the ONLY team that do not have the AUTOMATIC Salary Conversion language in their contracts. Meaning that they are the only ones who still have to ask the Player before they do the Salary to Signing bonus conversion to free up money.It isn’t just the Pats. No competent agent is going to let a team alter his client’s contract without his permission, no matter how much of a no-brainer the conversion seems to be for the player. It gives the player some leverage, in case the team has few other options to open up cap space, even if most don’t use that leverage.
“Sure, my guy will agree to that….IF you tack on this new incentive as well.”
Last year, the Pats primary formation was the Nickel. They had 2 DL, 2 EDGE, and 2 LB. They would swap out an EDGE player for an additional DL (Wise) at times.Clowney is great but doubt we spend the money. Sign Hicks and Flowers, keep Godchaux. Now all we need is to draft a monster DT in the middle. Johnson at DE would be nice though.
Muma in the draft solves your Tavai issue.
Agholor plus a draft pick like the kid from Rutgers. A jitterbug type later in the draft would be nice. Harry can go but I expect BB to keep him on short money to block. Wilkerson has stone hands, great kid, great athlete but will never be a NFL WR. We need to move on from Harry and Wilkerson.
Well that’s a name I hadn’t heard about

Davis or Brandon King.Could make someone like Cody Davis expendable. I know Davis is a good Special Teamer but that's all he provides and he is going to be 33 in a few months.
Peppers was a core STer w CLE.Davis or Brandon King.
He's a fantastic player. My closest colleage at work is a Giants fan and played in college so he knows ball. By all accounts he was the best defensive player they have had in a minute.
Correct,Peppers was a core STer w CLE.
Wonder how much money Peppers would command. He seems like a 5-8m/year player but I could be way off.
Massive fan of Peppers. If he's anywhere near healthy, sign the beast.Sign me up!
