A lot of the patriots fans in the comments don't seem to like the signing...but he could be good for them...

Good sign. Belichick thinks this is our year and he needs an insider.

Patriots are expert bargain bin shoppers. Pretty decent signing for them.

Very shocking to the rest of the league. He's the only coach in the league that is able to get something from nothing. Belichick knows exactly what he's doing. A team full of roll players that has made the playoffs 12 out of 15 years. Freaking crazy!

Don't we get something for that, since he was a Restricted Free agent?

I think we first have to tender him an offer with a draft pick attached to him. Did we do that?

Did we do that with any RFA this year? I completely missed that.

Two issues here. First as said he wasn't tendered and if he was tendered at the original round level it would have been $1.5m. Second is that since he was an UDFA we would have received nothing back anyway (we could have matched like we did with Bush last year).

There was also the option of tendering him at the 1st or 2nd round level but those would have been even more costly and no one would have overpaid for him at those prices.

This was the same issue with Walker. We gambled that we could bring him back at minimum instead of $1.5m but the Lions jumped at him and he wanted a chance to start.

We had three (Walker, Cadet, and Harris) and only Walker was worth tendering (but we didn't because we were trying to get him back cheaper).

11 of the last 12 years. Only year they missed in that span was the year Brady missed the entire season.
