Patriots Free Agency Wish List
Free agency is finally upon us. The tampering period begins Monday at noon eastern time and the official start of free agency is March 15th at 4pm. Due to the tampering period, many free agents will have agreed to deals before the official March 15th start, but that time kicks off the new league year and will lead to a flurry of visits, signings and trades. The Patriots have $32…
Recruiting Roundup: Milford
With the loss of a talented senior class, Milford is expected by some to come back down to earth. Surely, the Scarlet Hawks can’t win a share of the Hockomock League Kelley-Rex and make another Final Four postseason run again. For those doubters, the Hawks might have a surprise in store. Milford should be very good again, and are in reload, not rebuild, mode. Milford will compete in Division 3……

Patriots Biggest Needs Series: Offensive Tackle
The Patriots have several significant needs this offseason and the New England Football Journal is breaking down each one. This installment is arguably about the biggest need of all: offensive tackle. The Patriots offensive line was wildly inconsistent in 2022. New England had a sack rate of 7.06%, which was 19th in the NFL. Rhamondre Stevenson is a star, but he often did not have sizable running lanes and had…
Recruiting Roundup: Chelmsford
This week’s Recruiting Roundup features a look up in Chelmsford for the Lions, who on the verge of getting back to where the program was in the 1990s and later. As you’ll remember, the 1994 team had running back Dan Curran, who is now the coach at Merrimack College. The Lions always had numbers, too, with participation routinely in the 100-110-range in grades 9-12. Some of the biggest games in……
Patrick Mahomes is a top five quarterback all-time. Here’s why
Getty Images Typically, I am the type of person that says, “pump the brakes” when sports analysts and hot takers rush to say a particular game or player is the “best ever.” Being the best is unique, literally only one person can occupy that spot and often what looks bright and shiny in the moment fades over time. Patrick Mahomes is different. Based on his numbers and the eye test,…
