Photo by Kevin C. Cox/ After already being well-represented at Jayden Daniels’ throwing session on Wednesday, the Patriots are also visiting Maye and company. On Wednesday, we wrote about the New England Patriots sending their A team of coaches and executives to LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels’ pro day in Baton Rouge. On Thursday, that team has arrived at another campus: the Patriots’ contingent made the trip to Chapel Hill to watch North Carolina’s pro day. The main draw, of course, is QB Drake Maye. A projected first-round draft pick and realistic candidate to...

Patriots draft profile: Drake Maye has all the tools to be a franchise quarterback

Photo by G Fiume/ Maye would be a home run option at No. 3 overall. The New England Patriots are currently set to pick No. 3 in the 2024 NFL Draft, largely due to the poor quarterback play they received last season. As New England now may look for their next potential franchise quarterback with that selection, one prospect among them stands out: North Carolina’s Drake Maye. After a successful two-year stint as the Tar Heels starter, the 21-year old gunslinger has all the tools teams look for in a quarterback prospect. Let’s therefore take a closer look at Maye to...

Patriots are challenging Josh Uche to become a bigger part of their defense, contract incentives show

Photo by Cooper Neill/ The edge linebacker signed a one-year contract to stay with the Patriots in free agency. The New England Patriots were able to keep edge defender Josh Uche in the fold for the 2024 season. The former second-round draft pick, who explored free agency for the first time in his career, a one-year, $3 million contract with the Patriots — a deal that is significantly lower than other offers he reportedly received. Nonetheless, Uche will be in a position to boost his cash intake quite a bit before entering the open market once again next offseason....

New York Jets Flight Connections 3/28/24

Nathan Ray Seebeck-USA TODAY Sports Bringing your daily links to the NFL’s New York Jets Good morning, Gang Green Nation. I hope you’re all having a great start to the day. Despite having great meetings with the New York Jets, DE Jadeveon Clowney instead will be signing with the Carolina Panthers on a two-year contract. Supposedly, the holdup for the Jets was they were not willing to give Clowney anything more than a one year contract. If that’s true, it’s hard to disagree. While Clowney has been playing well recently, he’s an aging player at a position that...

Phinsider Question Of The Day: Free Agent With The Biggest Possible Impact Edition

Phinsider Question Of The Day: Free Agent With The Biggest Possible Impact Edition

Photo by Rich Schultz/ Earlier this week, I asked about the free agents that our Miami Dolphins had already signed this offseason. The question focused on the free agents or agents you wish the team had bypassed for another option. So what about the guys that were added to the roster that you are instead happy about? While it sucked for the fan base to see some fan favorites leave town for some nice paydays, the team did manage to fill some of the holes with some quality players from other teams. So tonight’s question of the day is which free agent signings that...

Patriots draft profile: Patrick Paul could be a plug-and-play starter at left tackle

Patriots draft profile: Patrick Paul could be a plug-and-play starter at left tackle

Photo by Peter Joneleit/Icon Sportswire via New England needs a new left tackle, and Paul is an attractive candidate. The New England Patriots did make investments in their offensive tackle position in free agency, signing Chukwuma Okorafor to a one-year contract and extending Michael Onwenu for three more seasons. As of right now, Okorafor and Onwenu might just be the team’s starting options at the position. But while Onwenu is locked into the right tackle spot, the left one remains a major need. Even with Okorafor aboard as a possible starter, New England needs to...

What are void years? A look at NFL salary cap manipulation and what it means

Photo by Cliff Welch/Icon Sportswire via The Miami Dolphins signed free agent linebacker Shaq Barrett to a one-year contract with four void years on the end of the deal. What does that mean? The NFL salary cap is the annual spending limit for each team each season. For the 2024 league year, the cap is set at $255.4 million, allowing teams only to spend that much on their roster for the season. Of course, teams know how to massage the cap, spending more than the allowance annually, with creative contract designs, accounting processes, and contract extensions moving...

Did former GM Mike Tannenbaum finally win back Dolphins fans with his recent mock draft?

Photo by Todd Rosenberg/ Is Jackson Powers-Johnson the right fit for the Miami Dolphins at No. 21? The Miami Dolphins spent the last two weeks rebuilding the roster in free agency but with under $5 million in available cap space, it’s time to turn our attention to the 2024 NFL Draft. Miami inked Aaron Brewer to a three-year contract to play center on March 17 and yet, former general manager Mike Tannenbaum believes the Dolphins should keep adding at the position. The mock draft featured quarterbacks going with the first four picks, and with six going by the time the...
