The Patriots are up against the cap. They likely can't afford him just based on his contract alone. That doesn't include the draft pick they'd have to give up to get him. If you're asking me if I would like him on the team? Yeah, I would. He's a very good LB. But I don't think they can afford him right now.
Still 16% less than you are paying DH (who I am saying I love his game) who has missed twice as many games. It's a need that has to be filled. A fast OLB who can cover and best, he's still young. He has to be an upgrade on Casillas? Yes? No?
DW Toys

Kendricks is indeed an upgrade over Casillas. However,

CAP MONEY ($23M)
$9M Kendricks
$8M OT or two (this may not be enough if we trade for an OT AND sign Waddle
$4M CB
$2M Slater
 
I want to sign pouncy or anyone else. Been waiting for news for a long while

Yes it is important that the team signs players whose names are recognizable to fans, regardless of price, need, or effectiveness! Just please Bill sign someone that I've heard about on First Take!
 
I would (pun intended) think that Vereen would be a better re-tread than Woodhead.

you must really young.

First, the patriots often sign no one in the first week.

Also, we signed Ebner yesterday, and came to terms with Burkhead. Also, there is a lot of news today with regard to interest or visits.
 
Woodhead is old and hurt, Cassilas is a JAGs JAG, and Cleveland has one career reception.

Your whining isn't going to change the cap situation or the reality of who they sign. There are 90 spots to stock and these players would likely all come cheap.
 
Career stats: 1 reception for 1 yard

The thing is, is Dwayne Allen at $5M that much better at blocking and receiving than Asante Cleveland at $1M?

That assumes the Pats can get a good player with the extra $4M. If they're just going to blow it on a Jordan Richards contract extension then forget it.
 
Danny woodhead smacks of desperetion to replace lewis
 
Woodhead is old and hurt, Cassilas is a JAGs JAG, and Cleveland has one career reception.

JAG's and STers have always been a critical part of Belichick patriot teams. Belichick has done OK with that strategy.
 
I would (pun intended) think that Vereen would be a better re-tread than Woodhead.

Plus it would allow us the "joy" of hearing our favorite pre-season broadcasters calling him Ben Vereen again.....

I don’t need to have heard of them, they don’t even need to be any good lol just want some players. B.B. is starting to look like old mother Hubbard, no one here but us chickens
 
Why can't we delete posts anymore I don't see the point in not being able to
 
So other Teams are hosting real players while we are hosting borderline Taxi squad players like Asante Cleveland...the SB Hubris haven't rubbed off the GM/HC BB yet.
