Probably won't cut Amindola and probably won't bring Sheard back and we will probably bring Blount back and we have no need for Mason, Smith, Lang, Wilcox, Britt, Fairly and Murray. The only signing that makes sense here is Perry. And I doubt that the Browns trade the 12th overall pick for Jimmy G. As a Pats fan I wish he was worth that much but I don't see it happening. I see them trading him to someone like the Broncos for their first round pick. And using our 2 first round picks on Sydney Jones/ Quince Wilson/ Adoree Jackson and Charels Harris. But I think that they should prioritize resigning their own players that they should bring back and then go after the FAs that would fit their scheme. It isn't like the Pats to target top FAs or sign many either. So all in all that's what I think is wrong with your post

All in all you're 100% wrong. I eat breathe sleep Patriots I watch them closer than anybody I'd much rather have Murray than Blunt as he's a lot younger, if Amendola doesn't accept a pay cut then he should be released, wasn't very productive and would clear up 7M in cap.

Patriots LBs are thin Smith would be a welcome backup

Patriots O-line could use some work up the middle for sure, Wilcox why not it'd help improve the secondary, Britt is the wideout the Pats need he's a deep ball threat and one of the best available receivers, Hogan isn't a number 2 receiver so we'd have a hole.

We need depth at the DT position and Fairley was one of the best and will be cheap

I am a die hard Pats fan too and I just don't see them spending that much in FA. And a lot of those guys won't come for cheap like Murray and Lang and don't get me wrong I would love for the Pats to get most of the guys you suggested but it just isn't the Patriot way to go out and get a lot of FAs.

I see them addressing the DE, CB and LB spots this offseason along with being back guys like Blount Hightower and Butler and maybe Bennett too depending on his price, and if his price is too high I see them drafting Bucky Hodges in the 4th round to replace him.
