Thoughts from the free-agent trail – New England Patriots Blog – ESPN

Good summation of where we’re at so far in the “legal tampering period”. If the Pats are able to get a second round pick for Mallett I don’t know how they can turn that down.

As for Talib and Edelman, the market’s going to dictate what happens. But the Pats are experts at knowing what kind of offers will be out there and I’d bet they have competitive contracts on the table for both.

With the Redskins allegedly interested in Talib it makes me think he could be gone. They could offer him more than he could turn down.
