    Pats extend C Dan Koppen...

    LINK

    They now have their top 7 OL are under contract through 2008:

    LT Matt Light (2010)
    LG Logan Mankins (2009)
    C Dan Koppen (2010)
    RG Stephen Neal (2009)
    RT Ryan O'Callaghan (2009)
    Swing T Nick Kaczur (2009)
    C/G Russ Hochstein (2008)

    Their top 5 DL are signed through 2008:

    DE Richard Seymour (2009)
    NT Vince Wilfork (2009)
    DE Ty Warren (2008)
    DE Jarvis Green (2009)
    NT/DE Mike Wright (2006, EFA in 2007, RFA in 2008, UFA in 2009)

    If you want to know how the Pats stay together, it is because they build the team strong on the lines. These guys are allowed to play together and grow together, and the team stays strong because if it.

          Who was the one OL that they didn't even offer a contract to? He got pissed and I think his Dad was talking **** about the Pats in the media. Pretty sure it was last season.

              More proof that Brady is over-rated.

                I don't know about that, but I do think QB is dependent on those around him more than any other position. No matter how good a QB is, he can't function without confidence in the guys protecting him.

                  I've always said he wouldn't look as good without those S.B. players around him. And he hasn't. Maybe he'll look good again with this group, but so far he doesn't. If the QB is really good, he'll look good behind any OL. JMO.

                    Bingo. Don't forget BB's master gameplans as well. Brady is a product of the system. He's a very good QB, no question...but no where near as good as alot of people (media in particular) have been saying.

                        Exclusive Rights FA. He was undrafted and signed a 2-year deal, but the Pats can retain his exclusive rights by tendering him a 1-year contract for minimum 3rd-year salary. After that year, he would be restricted and they can retain his rights with a higher tender.

                        After his 4th season (2008), he becomes eligible for unrestricted free agency.

                          go to the index page and you'll see that this section is talk about the Bills and the rest of the NFL.
