This is Sportscenter: Stephen Gostkowski

The Pats franchised Gostkowski today, which means a) they’ll retain arguably the best kicker in the game and b) they’re not franchising Devin McCourty and he’ll most likely hit the open market.

Maybe it’s just the Super Bowl afterglow but I’m not even stressing McCourty leaving at this point. Yes, losing him would be a blow and there’s a good chance someone’s going to offer him a lot more money than the Pats are going to but… WE WON THE SUPER BOWL ALALALALALALA!!

Thompson certainly has all the intangibles the Patriots look for, but I think he’s probably a strong safety in their system in the role that we saw Patrick Chung play last year. The game is certainly evolving where speed and instincts can overcome size deficiencies, but I think Thompson is probably just too small to play linebacker in the Pats’ system.

So, probably not the kind of value pick they’re looking to make at that spot. Honestly, no one wants to hear this, but at this point there’s probably a 90% chance they’re trading out of the 32nd spot anyways.

When people ask me about the offseason, I tell them, I’m going to have a Jerry Rice/Walter Payton mentality where whatever you do isn’t enough,” he said. “I’m going to have a work ethic where I know, in my heart of hearts, I’m going to outwork everybody. That’s what I hope to achieve.

Maybe it’s just me, but it seems kind of funny how there isn’t a lot of people beating the “Jonas Gray will start next year” drum. I don’t necessarily agree with that statement, but usually after a guy has a breakout game like that as a rookie, people tend to expect big things. I guess his disappearance after oversleeping the week after his SI cover appearance was what stuck with Patriots nation.

Still, the Pats could use a jump out of Gray, it sounds like he has the right attitude.
