He's coming back man. I'm starting to believe he never wanted to leave NE and he was just trying to boost his price tag by shopping himself around.

Down to pitt, NY & NE now, i think we should find out where hes gonna be soon.

And youre prob right about him trying to get every penny from NE, he deserves it too.

He really does. Who knows how shit would've worked out, but without a couple key plays by him, we could easily have been 3 n 4 in the BB/Brady era, which would have just been depressing.

yeah this is what everyone seems to be thinking, has he left pittsburgh yet?

bc they said that if he leaves their offer is off the table, since they don't want him "to use them as leverage" basically

Ya, i saw that. He's still there, but it'll be a two team race once he boards that plane. Fucking Jets always trying to OP to steal our players lol. After playing with NE for even a year or two, I don't know how you could possibly go to the Jets. Is getting shit on by Brady and BB twice a year really worth the extra money a year? I think not lol.

Any word on butler?

Really great breakdown of the whole Butler sitch here:

Long story short. He's going to a. Get traded (saints are very interested) b. Sign with another team, which said team will have to give up a 1st round draft pick because he's first round tenured (something that hasn't happened since 2003 in the NFL) or c. Play out this year with the pats for $3.8 million or whatever the exact # was. Pretty sure those are the only remaining options for him. Could drag out a while unlike the Hightower situation.

Patriots making a lot of moves and signing people left and right

Deeyyymm

Hightower expected to make his decision today :l

Would be a major surprise if it was anyone but the Patriots.

According to source familiar with the negotiations, the Jets have been out of the Hightower market since he left the building @nflnetwork
