Your Taint posted:Ted Thompson's plan is apparently "gently caress it, let everyone go." Considering they offered Lacy essentially the same contract, Lacy walked because he wanted to be on more of a run first team. Lang is in a position that Green Bay doesn't value much AND he got a huge contract. Bringing back Perry and getting Bennett are big moves. Bringing House back from Jax is good too.

Mangold is my speculation after hearing he and Tannebaum are still friends The CB trade has been leaked for a while. Even a Rams fan wrote saying Miami offered 2018 2nd rounder which LA wants their 2017. I read from that insider site miami offered a high 2018 pick so it adds

There is no way on the face of the planet the Pats give up that backfield for a low second round pick.

If it did happen and the Texans signed him to a contract anywhere close to what Bouye got then I'm going to hop right back on the Fire Rick Smith bandwagon

If Butler signs his tender now the only way the Saints could get him is if they gave the Pats their highest 1st rounder? I don't see why the Pats would give up Butler for the 32nd pick when he only costs 3.91 million next year.

Hope Dallas holds Romo in limbo for the next month and both Denver and Houston hold out for his release. I'll be bummed if one of the teams trade for him.

I don't see why the Pats would give up Butler for the 32nd pick when he only costs 3.91 million next year. In this scenario Butler would sign his RFA tender, than get traded to the Saints, who than sign him to a long-term contract. The idea behind trading him would be that they can draft a very good corner at the end of the first round who they than will control for 5 years, building a long term backfield with Gilmore and this new player.

This is screwing Houston pretty hard because they have to watch all the good FAs get snatched without spending anything because they're waiting on Romo presumably. Once Cutler signs somewhere, Jerry pretty much has them over a barrel

Your Taint posted:Ted Thompson's plan is apparently "gently caress it, let everyone go." In a few weeks, when signings don't count against comp picks anymore, he'll sign a bunch of second stringers. Not to mention trading down 5 times to plaster the holes in the roster with dozens of low round picks and UDFA's. The first round pick will be a mediocre DE/OLB, the second round an excellent value WR, and you know it.

So with the Burkhead signing, are the Patriots not bringing back Blount and plan to roll with Lewis/White/Burkhead?

Blount is 600 years old so he's probably getting replaced by SOMEBODY soon, but I don't think Burkhead is a lock to take over Blount's role by any stretch.

Does Cutler really have a choice but to wait to sign? Presumably he wants to go to the best situation, and to do that he's going to have to wait for Denver or Houston, unless he wants to play for the Browns or Jets.

I believe Burkhead's mainly a special teams/backup RB guy, although in his first season with more than 9 carries he did ok out of the backfield last year. Who knows, maybe the Pats think he's going to blossom with more workload, but I'd bet they're hedging their bets with 'well at least we know he can be useful in one area even if he doesn't take off at RB.'

I just assumed Lewis would slide into the early-down RB role with the other two splitting the 3rd down/passing down work.

I like this move for Patterson a lot. He had his best year as a rookie under Musgrave and with the more consistent Raider offense around him, I think Patterson can have a greater impact as a wild card component.

The defensive player picked in the first will be from a pac-12 school too (although I'm hoping for tj watt). Sad to see Lacy go, especially to the Hawks. Glad to see House coming back to us for cheap.
