With the pending labor agreement on the horizon, the sports talk shows are buzzing about potential free agent activity by the Pats. Many callers and "experts" want the team to make a huge splash by signing a big-name player, especially a pass rusher.
They fail to take into account that throwing large amounts of money at free agents is not the road for success. The team might need to open its wallet a bit if they find someone that can fit their needs, but they have their limits as to how much they will spend.
The salary cap will be reduced to around $120 million this season. The team has flexibility with its cap space. I just don't see them blowing a ton of money for any individual player. I would not be surprised to see some type of trade.
