The biggest question to me this offseason, is where will Osi end up?

I mean, I'd really like to see him back with the Giants, but I know there is just no way they'll give him the money he is looking for.

So, I guess I'm wondering if there is a team out there that is willing to give him the money he's looking for.

Adrian Wilson visiting Pats.
If signed (a big if) and assuming for only 1-2 yrs, I like this move. Brings experience, provides depth, and gives Tavon Wilson time to develop.
Celtics fan for life.

What do we need another linebacker for?! That must be one of our better-stocked defensive positions.

I assume he would play 4-3 DE not LB

I guess this makes sense. So many needs on defense, so little cap space...

Im not worried about cap space.  I bet Amendola's cap hit is less than 3 million this year.  Gives the Pats probably 24Million left.

I'm not sure I quite understand how the cap hit works in the NFL. Does it only include the guaranteed part of the contract?

My point is, we need 2-3 DBs, another OL, and we need to resign Vollmer. If we keep Talib and Vollmer, this alone may eat half of the cap space.

Yup. Very much been waiting for this. There's a lot of quality veteran defenders on the market this year and I hope the Pats end up with a couple.

For what it's worth too, Adam Shefter believes Talib will be back as well.

I am somewhat surprised the Pats haven't brought him in yet.

My guess is because he is a locker-room distraction.
