Player Signing Pats sign Jalen Mills

[Ras-IR Dowling]

He isn't a number 1 corner

Can he be our #2 corner opposite JC?

For the value, this is an excellent deal. Mills can line up at SS either deep or in the box, or he can play corner as the nickel. Assuming they still add at least 1-2 more DTs through FA or the draft and Hightower doesn’t fall off a cliff, the defense should be fixed.

liking this as a depth move

Devin McCourty replacement longterm.

Short term tbd

 

[Sciz]

Don't judge him by his work as a starting outside cornerback earlier in his career. He's going to move around.

 

[Nunchucks]

Can he be our #2 corner opposite JC?

Is JC a number 1 corner?

Just looked at the Pro Football Ref site and he has the name Green Goblin after his name........

 

[One-If-By-Sea]

$6M a year MAXIMUM = a lot less in reality. That definitely is not CB1 money. No confusion there.

 

[manxman2601]

The Rosenhaus connection continues

That March Super Bowl championship is looking good so far!

 

[BradytoMosstoGronk]

Seems versatile at a good price. Not very familiar with his game though.

 

[203Pat]

Not a huge fan of the player but I do like his versatility. $9 mill guaranteed isn't nothing but he didn't break the bank.

He isn't a number 1 corner

4.48 ON HIS PRO DAY.
Cousins, He was listed out as Free Safety. This might be DM's replacement. He's listed on his stats as a Strong Saftey. 26 years old LSU kid.
He is manuverable.

[PATRIOTSFANINPA]

Is it possible that this move might be making the chances of them shipping Gilmore out for an abundance of picks more likely? - or is he not likely to be opposite JC and just used as a flexible DB?

 

[DaBruinz]

Devin McCourty replacement longterm.

Short term tbd

Not sure about replacement. But he's a definite McCourty Sub. Something the Pats haven't had in well.. ever..

 

[jah]

What position do we think he'll spend the most time at here? I think there's probably more room in the safety rotation unless JC Jackson isn't coming back.

Been a pretty good day do far
