Wasn’t he part of the problem last year? As bench coach, he should have been the first one to see what was going on. 

Does MLB mandate that franchises must look at so many “minority” candidates in every managerial search or is that just in the NFL?

So judging from on air comments and this site, WEEI wants Carlo, and let me guess. Anything other then him and it’s a bad choice and a year of hearing how bad a choice.

 I’ve seen your predictions develop and you continue to think that the patriots are going to go big in free agency something they never do. First off in order to afford, Wallace, Vollmer, Abraham, Gamble and Wilson, the Patriots would have to convince all these players to take giant pay cuts in order to play for what would be an extremely talented team. The Patriots do not have the money to get all of these guys by any means. You also fail to mention the patriots will likely re-sign Julian Edelman and Kyle Arrington. Just to start. The Patriots do not have enough money to get all of these guys, and they won’t they simply do not do that. Coach Bill is not big going after the “big Fish” in free agency. Ever. He wants to build up from the ground. I would welcome this team that you have purposed. But It won’t happen. The Patriots are going to look for Welker and if not him Wallace. Other than that, they won’t look for an “big name” free agents, Aside from re-signing Aqib Talib, which appears doubtful. They’re going to make their money take a corner/safety in the 1st round.

Fair enough Kyle. You make alot of very good points but what stands out to me is Brady
doesn’t have too many more years at Championship level so I look for Pats to be very
aggresive in free agency. You sound like a nice Pats fan enjoy free agency and the draft.

I would rather get Boldin, clutch hands in big games, great possesion receiver, great size against small cornerbacks and a good mismatch for opponents.

The Pats are not going to set the market for a receiver – Miami will offer 11-12 mill/year for Wallace and he will not turn that down.

Miami can’t make the playoffs and can’t get him the ball.

I don’t disagree, but they have the cash.  Does the other stuff really matter to a guy that already has a ring?  He wants to, and is going to, get paid.

It is correct, Wallace will want too much money.  Heck, they probably don’t even want to pay Wes 9 Million.  The reality is that the Patriots do not want to sign Wes for big money and he will not be there next year.  I am sure of it.  Patriots will use Edleman and Amendola and Woody to fill the role of Welker at half the cost and it could be a good gamble.  People keep saying how bad Loyd was but he had 75 catches.  He did have a few games that were pretty bad, but he also had some exceptional games.   Not sure if they will keep him, I think his personality might cause them to cut him more than his production, but I think we will have to keep him.  Pats will have draft a physical deep threat as well as add another medium one at low money.  We also need to keep woody now.  Don’t forget Hernandez and Gronk can catch the ball as well as Veereen and woody.  My only concern for not having Wes is will TB 3rd down percantage be as high as it was last year?  Out of 25 mil left on the cap, 10 mil will go toward Edleman, woody,Amendola and another low cost deep threat. 5Mil go toward Volmber or even less.  This will give us about 12 mil to sign on pass rusher and two corner backs.

Freeney is done that Indy let him go. He’s a indoor player

Stop drafting corners, get some vets in here!

Stop drafting corners, get some vets in here!

 your constant predictions are stupid. go sign up for a fantasy league

Capitals to start a sentence and a period when you finish.
I will conitune my posting and learn how not to be so mean to people.

Obviously money talks but Wallace has said he wants to play for a warm weather team.  Miami sounds like it will be his new home.

Wallace is not coming here.  He’s the attractive WR in this free agency, but he’s not worth the money he will sign for and the Patriots know this and hence won’t sign him.  To be honest I’m not overly impressed with this years potential crop of FA’s.  Gamble wants to retire, and Sean Smith can probably get overpaid somewhere else, although this “window” of opportunity everyone keeps talking about ,and rightfully so , might influence the Pats spending on a DB.  I still think the Pats should have tagged Talib.  I could see Reed landing in Foxboro, Boldin not so much, he wants to get paid….

mike going to sign with the pats for 5 years and 48 million at 10 million a year

I think the Patriots pull the trigger on Wallace an let Welker walk.  They do have 26 million in available cap space, so they may be able to grab 2 or 3 of the players Dano mentioned..I have to say that I love the Deandre Hopkins prediction, but Bb rarely ever grabs receivers in the first round.. I agree with Dano, that Brady’s window of opportunity is fast closing, so they need to make a few big splashs now!!

Exactly!!!   Wallace could accept a bit less money for an opportunity to win..

Did you say 10 million for Edelman, Woody, and Amendola??  Are you sure about that??  Why would they bring in Amendola if they plan on paying Edelman, they play the same position..I hate to say it, but I think with the emergence of Vereen, they let Woody walk, unless he comes super cheap..Lloyd’s personality didnt mesh with his teamates, not to mention he was terribly inconsistent, so for the money he costs, I would dump him too!  I think they keep Edelman and let Welker walk, and try to sign either Wallace or Boldin as an outside threat..That would give them Edelman in the slot with hopefully Wallace or Boldin as an outside threat. I think they also grab a young receiver in the draft. 

AFC CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!  Thats when…

Hey Chris, he’s in Miami ready to sign with the Fins!

 It that was the case wouldn’t he just stay in Pittsburgh?
