I'm terrified of what the Solder camp will be asking for in the future. Some of these OT deals are outrageous.

Earl Mitchell, who is signing with the Dolphins, was coveted by several teams. Versatile DT with pass rush skills (4 sacks last yr.)
Expand Collapse
Reportedly 4 years, 16 million; 9 million guaranteed.

My point was that it is beyond myopic to point to the opinions of Steelers fans in a way to denigrate the opinion of the Patriots' front office on the relative value of Emmanuel Sanders. He could easily be miscast in an offense with a shit offensive line, running game, and a #1-heavy target monster like Antonio Brown.
Not to mention, Welker's addition to the 2006 receiving corps (#1 WR Reche Caldwell) would be quite a bit like adding Sanders to the currently-projected receiving corps of the 2014 Patriots.
Veldheer got 35 total in AZ, doubt his guarantees are higher than Saffold'ssoxfan121 said:

Mike Klis says Zane Beadles got 5/30 with $13 guaranteed. That's a hell of a pay day from a guy who made less than $1 million last year.
Very interesting. If Talib gets around what Grimes got, I would be very happy with that deal. I wouldn't be happy if he got north of $10/year and over $16 million guaranteed.
Loyko has been wrong when he guaranteed he was right too many times for me to trust anything he says. I don't think he has any sources.

This, 1 million times over.
Write enough shit and crow about the one time it sticks.

Hopefully he doesn't get the offers he's looking for and decides to stay.
Big mistake not re-signing Edelman IMO. It's not just the receiving (which is clearly valuable) as he is the active leader in PR average (and best since the merger). He's not flashy there but seems to always get positive yardage, and knows when to make a fair catch...I don't recall a boneheaded play he made returning a punt. That seems really hard to replace -- having a guy who's elusive, speedy, AND not prone to muffing punts is hard to find.

I'd have rather given it to Edelman than Amendola...and they can cut DA after this year with little dead money, correct?Stitch01 said:
If he signs for something crazy, sure, go with DA and the second-year guys, and hope Gronk is there. But I think they'll miss him in a lot of ways.

Sure, thats easy to say now, but no way if im the Pats im paying 2 injury prone guys the same deal. People are very quick to forget that Edelmen had just as checkered a past as Amendola with regards to injuries. Right or wrong, I think they are happy to bank on Amendola being the slot guy next season. Can't spend 10mil on that position. They didnt pay Wes that much in his prime, no way they're locking up two injury prone guys for that kind of money who are somewhat redundent.
Schefter reports on TV that TJ Ward will officially be attacking Gronk's knee during the next Peyton Manning matchup...ugh.

Why would the Broncos spend on Ward? They two good and young safeties already. Whatever Elway, spend away.

Julian Edelman likely to take his time. Don't expect a quick signing there.
Good IMO

Wow, saw this in a Reiss article:
Pats received very little for the money they spent on free agents from other teams last year.
Apparently TJ Ward's deal with the Broncos averages 5.5 million per year. That's a good signing.
The year before was maybe even worse - Fanene, Robert Gallery, Fells, Gregory, Ballard, Trevor Scott, some DB who spent the whole year on IR, 2 FB who didn't play, Addai ... yikes.ShaneTrot said:
RT @KMart_LI: League source tells me Darrelle Revis would, in fact, "love" to play for Rex Ryan and the #Jets.
