Patriots reach a one-year deal with Deion Branch
Good news and a solid depth player at this point. You know Brady trusts him and he’ll provide good leadership and insurance should injuries or other issues arise. Always happy to have a former Super Bowl MVP back even if he’s not quite the threat he once was.
One of the best players in Patriots history, Tedy Bruschi has made so many plays during the Patriots championship run, we will never forget you Tedy.

If the Patriots signed Anderson to that contract, it would have been their only pact longer than three years this offseason while also making him the third-highest paid player on defense behind Vince Wilfork and Jerod Mayo. It would be hard to justify that much for a player who didn’t project to play every down in their scheme.

Why the New England Patriots’ signings make sense – ESPN Boston
Great stuff in here, digging deep into the numbers to show how some of the new signings could contribute.
Over the past two seasons, Lloyd leads the NFL in targets (73) and receptions (27) on throws over 20 yards. Over that same span, Patriots wide receivers combined for 62 targets and 21 receptions. That includes six catches on passes thrown over 41 yards. By comparison, Tom Brady has only three such completions over the past four seasons. In 2007, Brady was 7-for-16 for two touchdowns on passes of 41 yards or more. Since then, he’s just 3-for-29.
Mac’s Football Blog: Patriots Free Up $7.2M In Cap Space By Restructuring Tom Brady’s Contract
Cap space for Welker long term dealio perhaps?
New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady restructured his contract last week, a league source confirmed on Wednesday. Signed to a four-year, $72 million contract extension on September 10, 2010, Brady was scheduled to earn $5.75 million in base salary with a $6 million roster bonus and $250,000 workout bonus this season. Under the restructure, Brady’s base salary was reduced to a fully guaranteed $950,000, with the leftover amount ($4.8 million) combined with the roster bonus and converted into a $10.8 million signing bonus that will be prorated over the three remaining years on Brady’s contract.

It’s really gonna bum me out when Gronk is all media savvy and comfortable in front of the camera some time down the road. Maybe in like 5-10 years?

Possibly the greatest @theLawFirmBJGE picture from the 2010 season. Though 45-3 is still extremely bittersweet for me.
