Exciting news today as Tom Brady looks like he’ll remain a Patriot until the day he retires, and with the last contract he’ll ever sign with the Pats, made a statement of the kind of player and person he’s been throughout his career:
For the second time in his illustrious career, Brady is doing something players in this day and age simply do not do: As he did in 2005, Brady, a league source told SI.com, is signing a contract with New England that will pay him significantly less money than the market will bear, in large part to help the Patriots stay competitive for the next five seasons. Amazingly, according to the source, the deal is for an eye-poppingly conservative $27 million, which is less than half his worth by any measure.
The Pats should have enough cap space now to get something done with Welker, and it sounds like they’re trying to. This would explain why Brady took a team-friendly deal. It will ensure the Pats are able to put a lot of talent around him.
So this is it folks. Tom Brady has five more chances to get that elusive fourth Lombardi Trophy. The Pats should be well set-up on both sides of the ball to help him get it.
Great news all around for Patriots fans and the 2012 league year isn’t even over yet…
Albert Breer and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network are hearing that a long-term extension being reached before Welker hits free agency is still a possibility.

Positive report, but I’ll celebrate when it’s official.

So after the Wide Receiver drills what are your thoughts on who the Patriots should maybe pick in the draft?
I’ll be compiling everything this week. The draft is a three month process for me since I pay zero attention to it until the Patriots season ends. In the next month I’ll really be getting a good sense of the players that I like most and where the best value will be. Overall I think the Pats will wait until round two at the earliest if they take a receiver. I know everyone just wants to plug Tavon Austin in, and obviously that kind of explosiveness would help, but I try not to get too attached to any one player because really there’s a 90% chance he won’t end up in New England.
I’ve said several times if you’re a playoff team this year, you’re laughing because there is so much depth to this [draft] that if you’re drafting 20-30, it’s not a whole lot different than the fifth or sixth pick. So for me, if you’re a playoff team, you’re sitting back and going, ‘This is pretty good.’

Should be an interesting day at the combine with the DL and LBs going. Want to find the quickness and agility for both…
