All Drew Rosenhaus players, btw.

Do you think this is a signal that BB will either Trade the # 15 pick or go heavy offense in the draft?

I think that he'll be trading picks in this draft for lower and future picks.

So! Are you still feeling impatient NE fans?

Yeah I am thinking that as well

 

[Yankee Traveler]

Chiefs sign Thuney 5 years $80M

Well...that's too bad.
Is Fisher worth a fuck?
I think they released him a couple weeks ago?

 

[RubinRock]

Nelson Algholor. Come on down

 

[Yankee Traveler]

Nelson Algholor. Come on down

Decent...but not going to set the world on fire.

 

[RubinRock]

Holy shit. Another WR. Kendrick Bourne. Again nothing big. They still don’t have a great wr core. Crazy the amount of guys signed today. Bill has been busy

 

[BigKen]

Patriots have re-signed Deatrich Wise

 

[BigKen]

Bill certainly has ben busy today.

Just hope he can get a couple more things done. Most important, resign center David Andrews. If not, find a grizzled veteran who's equally as good. At least try to resign RB James White.

I don't think Bill is done and I'm looking forward to seeing how many 2nd tier guys he'll sign to back fill the defense and possibly the O-Line.

Thought you guys might enjoy this.

listen, listen, there it is, the sound of a pin dropping.

 

[oldmaninthedesert702]

I can live with every single signing...very impressive day

 

[BigKen]

Bill had to recharge his phone and go to Walmart and get some extra pens. I heard he sent out for pizza and took a nap about 9:30 last night.

Some stories have been circulating that he attemptd to contact some running backs and was told that they weren't interested in coming to Foxboro. There's also one that he contacted and spoke with Curtis Samueland Samuel said he would get back to him. Bill told him to never mind, he wasn't going to wait. Then he signed Bourne.

Hell yeah we got Jason Bourne!!!

Big day for the Pats IMO some really good signings. I still don't like the TE signing but when it comes to football and the Pats I don't know squat compared to what the organization knows.

I would still like to see the Pats take the best DT at #15 I fell we still need pressure up the gut. Now if he can trade that for capital okay there may be a later DT that is just as good or has great upside. Judon was very good and still could be, I don't know a lot of Godchaux?

NEs D was dominant when Big Vince occupied space. NEs D doesn't require pressure up the middle. It just needs to occupy space and not lose ground.

 

[YankeeRebel]

I see where they signed another DT so I now feel that D Line will not be addressed early. Does anyone feel BB might trade down for draft capital after this FA haul

 

[BigKen]

Interesting that Bb was so active yesterday. As a result, the Jets have started spending their money this morning and have already signed three players.

• Carl Lawson, DE.
• Corey Davis, WR.
• Jarrad Davis, LB.

Makes one wonder what the top FA WRs are thinking today as not one got signed yesterday. Fuller, Golladay, AB, Jackson, Fitzgerald, Watkins, Green, Tate.............prices are sure to come down as more of the "other" positions get snapped up.
