Brady already counting $13.5 mill against the cap next year is going to hurt. Unless there is someway they get creative I don’t see how they don’t have any non-rookie contract QB and still re-sign some of our other guys. This is where some of the poor drafting and personnel moves are really hurting us. This team obviously needs to get younger and more talented and we don’t have the money to do so as far as free agency. This is where we should have some talented young linebackers ready to step into starting roles when we let KVN and Collins walk. This is where we should have some defensive backs to rotate in and take over for McCourty and potentially Chung. We don’t have those young cheap guys that can fill in so we can pay Brady and then trade for a guy like Odell or sign an AJ Green or Hunter Henry. We suddenly have a whole bunch of holes to fill and if Brady isn’t back I would just opt for a full rebuild.
Yeah from my understanding as soon as the contract is voided Brady is a free agent and we end up with $13.5 mill in dead cap.Oh i see now. That’s the real reason our cap number is high. Is that dead money though?
All I'm thinking we just won Superbowl last season and it's hard to win back to back with bunch of rookies and new players out there..Its a lot of holes to fill..

It's time to move on from Brady. The team doesn't have the money and cap space to put the WEAPONZ around Brady that he so clearly needs. He can no longer score 3 or 4 touchdowns a game unless he has a good tight end, a league best offensive line, a power running game, and multiple inside the #s receiving threats. Brady accomplished all of that (3-4 tds/game) with similar or lesser WEAPONZ in 2013. Brady is no longer the quarterback who makes others around him better. Gone are the days when Brady takes a little known Wes Welker and turns him into a household name and perennial pro bowler. Gone are the days when Brady takes an undrafted FA NYJ castaway from Chadron State and makes him one of the best third down backs in the league. Gone are the days when Tom Brady takes a Brandon LaFell and the receiver puts up career-best stats. Gone are the days when Brady can take a Tim Wright and Wright posts a career high in touchdowns.
We reached the season in which Tom Brady can take a guy like Mohamed Sanu, who had 33 catches in 7 games and caught 78.6% of his targets and averaged 9.48 yards/catch in Atlanta and turn that into 25 catches in 9 games and caught 56.3% of his targets and averaged 6.94 yards/catch (a career low).
It is clear he is sick of Belichick and the way the coach operates the team. Good luck Tom, you are the greatest of all time, but your time here has run its course. Brady's pouting and grousing after victories was off putting and I'm sure his teammates did not appreciate it. Brady cost the team the game with his atrocious interception (if he doesn't throw that pick Miami isn't in the position to win w game ending drive) and does Brady talk about that boneheaded throw after the game? "It was just a bad throw." What? That's all you can say? How bout talking about how as the leader of the team you can't just GIVE THE BALL AWAY to the other team, especially when you've been below league average in just about every category as a quarterback?
There is no guarantee metcalf wouldve not struggled here in this system . Like everything else, it was good timing and perfect situation for him and his team. If it was harry catching TDs from wilson we would say the same thing the other way.

This post resonates with me which is somewhat shocking considering most of your other posts.
The one thing I never got about the whole AB fiasco was everyone crying that we had no chance without him. If you can’t compete unless you have a Top 10 HOF WR then something is seriously wrong.
If your QB can only work with HOFers, that’s a problem. Because they don’t grow on trees and they’re not cheap.
Brady can get $30m in a heartbeat from 8 different teams. Probably $35m if he didn't care where he went.
If he comes to us for less than $30m it's a big discount.
Not really. Brady has done more with less but he needs guys that can actually get separation and average more than 1 or 2 catches and get yards. Did you see anyone after edelman that could do this ?
More than a few times I saw open receivers and Brady forcing it somewhere else.
I also saw a lot of bad throws.
Some of you have to realize Bill has to put a team together and not just load up on top players for Brady's sake.
He’s also not building a champion if he has to pay Brady 30 million.
