It's easy, and only takes a few moments.You do realize Belichick started David Andrews, an UDFA, for 11 games his rookie yearI don't think that Belichick would count on starting a rookie 3rd or 4th round center. I expect that we will sign a veteran.
If he's going to sign with the Dolphins, he better make sure he gets 2 years of guaranteed money. KVN had a bad structure that let the team move on easily after just 1 year.Andrews at this point might consider that the last 2 Patriots that signed with the Dolphins were both cut loose the following year (Van Noy and Karras). I'm not sure what's going on with Elandon Roberts, but Andrews might make note of the fact that the Patriots have typically had long term relationships with OLs like Koppen, Connolly, Neal, etc. They hold onto guys and provide a bit of job security for them.
Jut something to think about.
This is all true, but he also just saw his buddy Thuney break the bank in KC. Although he's not going to make anywhere close to that, he may be thinking this is his last shot at this. For an UDFA, this is his opportunity. I didn't expect him back until I saw Bill spending more money than a Jewish princess on a shopping spree in Miami.
There's more than 1 team looking for a center.and he also just saw a 3-time all pro center enter the market.....granted Hudson is 31, but that also makes him a prefect plug & play, low cost vet who signs a short deal while a team drafts a C lol

KVN made 15 million for one year. I don't think he's crying about it.If he's going to sign with the Dolphins, he better make sure he gets 2 years of guaranteed money. KVN had a bad structure that let the team move on easily after just 1 year.
The year after starting a rookie drafted in the 4th and about a dozen after starting one drafted in the 5th.You do realize Belichick started David Andrews, an UDFA, for 11 games his rookie year
I don't see that as a problem. Linsley was the top rated center available and he reset the top of the Center market at $12.5M/yrand one more center that grades out higher on the market.....
I didn’t see a reason for the release.. why did they cut him if they didn’t even save cap room?That clown show in Vegas just cost themselves $2 million in cap room to release Hudson. Helps us in the Andrews pursuit.
I think that is what people are wondering. By all accounts he is a pretty good player and was a team captain. I guess that's what happens when you let TV guys run the show.I didn’t see a reason for the release.. why did they cut him if they didn’t even save cap room?
I don't think it matters anymore, everyone wants to play for Pats now (cha chin).Someone please tell me that Rodney Hudson's agent is Drew...
