Some quick thoughts on this Tuesday:<\/p>\n

1) The fan voting portion of the Patriots Hall of Fame is in full swing. The three nominees are Coach Bill Parcells; Defensive Tackle Richard Seymour and LB Mike Vrabel.\u00a0 This is a very seasoned group of nominees, as Parcells and Seymour have been nominated 4 times each, while Vrabel has 5 nominations.\u00a0 My pick for the Patriots Hall is Richard Seymour.\u00a0 He has been a Pro Football Hall of Fame finalist the last two years, selected to the all decade team of the 2000\u2019s and a member of the 50th<\/sup> Anniversary team.\u00a0\u00a0 There isn\u2019t any doubt that Seymour should be there. Mike Vrabel is just unlucky, going against stiff competition every year.\u00a0 It\u2019s not that he doesn\u2019t deserve it, those that have been selected just deserve it more.<\/p>\n

As far as the controversial Bill Parcells is concerned, I will never forgive him for what he did to this team leading up to the Super Bowl at the end of the 1996 season.\u00a0 He negotiated a contract with the NY Jets while still the coach under contract with the Patriots leading up to their championship showdown with the Green Bay Packers.\u00a0 His focus should have been on that Super Bowl and not where his next coaching job was going to be.\u00a0 He will never receive a vote from me and lots of other fans like me.<\/p>\n

Voting continues through May 8th<\/sup> at Patriots.com.\u00a0 The announcement on the selectee will be made the following week.<\/p>\n

2) Mike Reiss reported on Sunday that longtime member of the scouting staff Monti Ossenfort was moving on when his contract expired. Albert Breer broke the story, that he will be leaving the Patriots for the Tennessee Titans.\u00a0 He will become Director of Player Personnel, which is the same title that Nick Caserio carries here in New England.\u00a0 From everything I have read about Ossenfort, he is a very capable, loyal and all around good guy.\u00a0\u00a0 Good luck to Monti in his new assignment.\u00a0 This is yet another blow to the organization.\u00a0 \u00a0Look for a future article to address all the organizational changes this year.<\/p>\n

3) Stid the kid is the man. It appears that Cincinnati tried to get the Patriots interested in Andy Dalton but there seemed to be no dice at any price.\u00a0 Dalton carried a huge salary that would come with a trade and the Patriots up against the salary cap couldn\u2019t do anything.\u00a0 When Dalton became an Unrestricted Free Agent, the Patriots were still not interested.Dalton received an outrageous $3M guarantee from Dallas, with incentive of up $7M more.\u00a0 Good deal for Dalton who has a home in the area.\u00a0 This deal may have been just to put some pressure on the Dak Prescott negotiations.\u00a0 \u00a0 Cam Newton is still out there, but nobody appears to be interested.\u00a0 Perhaps it is the fact they can\u2019t get him into their facilities for a full medical exam.<\/p>\n

What does this all say about Stidham?\u00a0 Nothing but positive things for Stidham that the organization has faith in his abilities.\u00a0 This is going to be quite the off season.\u00a0 Hoping for a big jump from Stidham this season.<\/p>\n

4) I see where James Develin confirmed what I stated last week that he would be interested in staying with the Patriots organization in some capacity. This was done in his exit interview with the local media.<\/p>\n

5) The upcoming 2020 schedule will be formally announced on Thursday may 7th<\/sup> at 8:00 on NFL Network. Should be interesting to see how many prime time games the Patriots get.\u00a0 Usually they are at the max while also getting a large number of 4:00 games.\u00a0 I will be looking to see if they get back to back weeks on the West Coast.\u00a0 In the past the Patriots have stayed on the West Coast and practiced there.\u00a0 This was considered a great bonding opportunity in the past.\u00a0 This team may just need something like that with the turnover of personnel.<\/p>\n

6) The haul from the Jimmy Garoppolo trade was finalized in the 2020 draft. Through a myriad of trades starting with sending Garappolo to SF at the trade deadline in 2017 for a 2018 2nd<\/sup> round selection.<\/p>\n

The following players were taken:<\/p>\n

2018 CB Duke Dawson (2-56)
\nLB Christian Sam (6-178)<\/p>\n

2019 RB Damien Harris (3-87)
\nP\u00a0 Jake Bailey (5-162)<\/p>\n

2020\u00a0 TE Dalton Keene (trade up to 3-101 by including 4-125 acquired the year before and tied to the Garoppolo trade tree, and pick 4-39, as well as a 20121 6th<\/sup>)<\/span><\/p>\n

Dawson was another in a long line of DB busts in the 2nd<\/sup> round by BB.\u00a0 Sam is no longer with the team.\u00a0 Harris is an incomplete as he was active for just two games for a total of 4 carries.\u00a0 Jake Bailey was a bright spot last year on punts and kick offs.\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n

The final piece was TE Dalton Keene.\u00a0 Many thought Keene was a reach with one such prognosticator stating he was worst draft pick of the entire draft.\u00a0 On the other side another team\u2019s scout was overheard telling Keene that he was \u201cthe biggest dick\u201d on the field, in a complimentary way.\u00a0 \u00a0You have to like an offensive player that has the nickname Rambo.\u00a0\u00a0 Doug Kyed convinced me about Keene when he made the comparison to SF TE George Kittle.\u00a0 Both had very little production in their Senior year of college.\u00a0 I think Keene was just under-utilized at Virginia Tech.<\/p>\n

7) There seems to be a little confusion over FB Jacob Johnson status. He has not been granted the roster exemption for a 2nd<\/sup> year under the NFL\u2019s International Player Pathway Program.\u00a0 Four new players were given to NFC East teams this year.<\/p>\n

8) Final little throw away item. UDFA Rashod Berry lists himself as a LB for the NE Patriots.\u00a0 He did play a little DE for Ohio St last year.\u00a0 Compared to UDFA EDGE Trevon Hill, he is faster and heavier!\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0The Patriots have yet to announce their UDFA class officially.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
