It’s certainly possible, he fits the kind of veteran coming-off-an-injury that the Pats are usually willing to take a flyer on. He certainly has injury issues, as does Danny Amendola (if the Pats are in the market for replacing Wes Welker). Edelman is probably the best choice of all three of them.
Still, I’d be fine to kick the tires on him. As long as he promises not to wear a tinted face shield.

The question is, how much value do you put on that with about $16 million in cap room available (there’s room for more if the Patriots want to do extensions for Brady and/or Vince Wilfork). Then you throw in the team’s own key free agents that will need to be re-signed or replaced (Wes Welker, Sebastian Vollmer, Danny Woodhead, Julian Edelman, Trevor Scott, Deion Branch, Donald Thomas), and needed upgrades (receiver, cornerback, strong safety, pass rushers, cover linebacker), and you begin to wonder whether the Patriots have the luxury to add a player just for his experience. This isn’t fantasy football.
With Wilfork having two years remaining on his contract and Love, Deaderick and Pryor in the final year of their pacts, it wouldn’t be surprising if Bill Belichick targets this area early in the draft with the future in mind. Former CFL star Armond Armstead, who inked a three-year deal, could also be an important part of the future.

With the Colts making the expected decision to not re-sign defensive end Dwight Freeney, I looked back at his career stats against the Patriots. Any guesses as to how many sacks he totaled against New England in 13 career games, including the playoffs? The answer is four, with just one of them coming in his final eight games versus New England.

The offseason rolls on with the scouting combine (aka underwear olympics) next week and the new league year starting just three weeks from this Tuesday. Yes, it’s the bleakest part of the offseason but there was still plenty of good Patriots reading out there this week. The best of it:
