David Andrews weird exit. Joe Milton reports- the Browns have checked in. The asking price is a third round pick, the Browns are now out. Its fair for the Patriots to ask for a third. We have only seen him once against backups. He showed something last season in preseason as well. Only one of Jones' desired wide receivers out of ten is available for the Patriots, and he is Luther Burden II... a player in this year's draft.

Who deserves the most credit in the Patriots front office? David Andrews revisit. What went on there? Does Kraft deserve any credit? The Patriots free agent class seems to be a bunch of backup plans. This offseason is all about backup plans, especially at center and left tackle. Quick thoughts on the Bruins. Evaluating the Patriots defense. All of the Patriots signings have been defensive signings. Does having a top 10 defense have an advantage over the rest of the league? The Patriots are trending towards having a top 15 defense. Kraft is begging for credit, we do not need that. Is Wolf doing anything? No. Caller calls out Swayman and says that the Bruins signed the worse guy. Jones would rather have Swayman long term than Ullmark. Nothing has happened in free agency since Monday! Most of the good players are now gone. Now onto Kupp. Do the Patriots have any chance at him? Bush talk.
