Also, a reminder about free agency:
-3-year deals are usually 2-year deals. The 3rd year=a team option
-4-year deals are usually 2-year deals. The final 2 years=team option
--2 year deals are usually a 1 year deal (Year 2=Team option)
This is why you see so many guys being cut this week.

Spillane is a solid player. Was very curious to see how the new staff would address the linebacker position, where the incumbent starters (Ja'Whaun Bentley and Jahlani Tavai) are *very* Belichick-coded starters.
Really wonder who ends up the odd man out there

Spillane also surprisingly good in my coverage DVOA stat last year. Good player, we'll see if they overpaid when the numbers come out.
Another sign that the #Patriots are changing the scheme on defense. Spillane is a 229-pound ILB. Good downhill run defender and interior blitzer. Spillane plays fast, can really fly around.
Sources: The Patriots are signing standout LB Robert Spillane, the former Raider.

Whew. Pats ponied up. But Tampa wins out
Per Ian Rapoport, Chris Godwin left $20 million on the table because he wanted to stay in Tampa Bay.

No, he turned down way more from New England to stay in Tampa
You surprised it’s a straight up 22m AAV for essentially 2 years? Seems like everyone was saying he’d get a huge bag on open market
