To be sure, the 2024 numbers aren't reliable given everything that is bound to happen between now and then, but they clearly have a plan. https://overthecap.com/salary-cap-space/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I've said elsewhere, every NE draft from 2010-2015 was good to great. Not so good lately, but he's certainly had good drafts in the past.

NE has now paid out the 2nd most guaranteed money in an offseason EVER. Can you clarify? For NE? Yes for the NFL I doubt it since only 3 have any real guarantee after year 1.

GunnerBill Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 24 minutes ago, dave mcbride said: Bill, they ALWAYS had a plan to go big on spending this year. They very clearly set themselves up last year to go big in 2021, and it was reported on. When the financial effect of COVID on the cap became known (which was well before the start of last season), they figured that having a ton of space this year (because more teams than ever would be up against it) would give them a competitive advantage in FA. And they're not like the Bengals; their owner isn't cheap. Agree. But equally you would expect they have a plan at QB and I am still struggling to believe Cam is it. I think they are a very real candidate to trade up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jauronimo Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 38 minutes ago, fallen627 said: Tbh, I think this is a smart move for them. It complements Cam’s abilities. They are going to run and use a short passing game with two-TE sets. We can laugh, and I don’t know if it will work, but this is a solid plan on their part. Its what they did last year. Their offense moved the ball pretty well last year but it rarely amounted to points. Its highly difficult to orchestrate 10+ play drives in the NFL.

PatsFanNH Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 3 minutes ago, ndirish1978 said: One huge difference is only 3 have guarantees running past this year. I doubt anyone thing Henry,Smith as TE is a bad long term deal or Judon As a proven pass rusher. The rest are 1 year guarantee and the Pats can move on. The only one I am not sure about is Agholor contract they haven’t broken that one down but the rest are guaranteed for a year and that’s it. (Also the cap will explode up next year and these will look like bargains) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe a trade. Afc east is going to be a dogfight. I agree.. I think they use most of their draft capital to move up and get the Bama QB. Newton is a place holder.

Bleeding Bills Blue Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 Just now, TheBeaneBandit said: The other game they were driving for the W until Zimmer snuck up on Cam. But they lost. Also, Buffalo also threw 18 passes in a windy game. It was built for the NE rush offense to win - and they lost. Then the 2nd time they got absolutely smoked. They're a better team than they were a week ago. But they also spent 2 3rd round picks on TE's a year ago, and just spent like 80 million upgrading them. Mills essentially plays the same position as dugger (2nd rounder last year). The other 2 LBs they drafted probably won't see the field much. Basically their entire 2020 draft is being replaced - and they added some WRs since they whiffed on Harry in 2019. Oh - and their offensive line is a considerably weaker unit than it was previously. I'd expect this is where their draft is heading. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Blitz Posted March 16, 2021 Share Posted March 16, 2021 (edited) Jonnu Smith is going to be one of the biggest busts this year and they are worried about it. It's why they got HH. Every single skill guy in Tennessee benefited from having Derek Henry scare the hell out of defenses. What's the running game in New England again? Cam? And HH....hope he can stay on the field and his QB is as good as Rivers and Herbert. Good luck Bill. Edited March 16, 2021 by Big Blitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
