Locker room guy / bridge player, Bourne is the resident "vet" leader guy and I'd say based on mistakes and poor play last year he's not very good at it. Total meh signing but I do like Hollins

Bourne had a strong year under McDaniels, though,

and I don't expect them to cut Douglas or Polk.

That is true, and I'd give Bourne a break coming off the ACL and into a new system. One thing about Mack Hollins that no other WR on our roster has, size. he's 6'4"

Bourne sucks too; and who cares how big you are when you Suck?
 
There is an actual chance that the #Patriots could trot out this defensive line group in 2025:
• Milton Williams
• Christian Barmore
• Abdul Carter
• Keion White
• Harold Landry

They remain elusive because it’s going to be tough to attract UFAs there. Belichick even talked about it and I’m pretty sure someone from this year’s crop also mentioned the taxes plus the grades re: treatment of players and families.

“It’s Taxachusetts”: Bill Belichick Discusses why some pro athletes stay away from Massachusetts - New Bedford Guide

By Michael P. Norton, State House News Service Sports and politics, they're never really that far ap
www.newbedfordguide.com www.newbedfordguide.com

“It’s Taxachusetts,” Belichick said, drawing laughs Monday from Pat McAfee and A.J. Hawk during an appearance on The Pat McAfee Show. “They take more from you.”

Barreling into his new life as an out-of-work coach and commentator, Belichick was opining Monday on the variables that players and teams face when weighing career moves, trades, signings, and the off-the-field factors than can play a role in decision-making.

It was at that point in the interview that Belichick brought up “the millionaire’s tax,” as he called it, referring to the new 4 percent tax on household income above $1 million per year that Massachusetts voters approved after Democrats pushed it to the ballot in 2022.

The surtax, which comes on top of the state’s flat 5 percent tax on all income above $8,000, generated $2.2 billion in fiscal 2024. It drove most of the 8.6 percent growth in tax receipts for the year, pulling more money from CEOs and other big earners like Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics, but also from a slew of lower-profile wealthy families.

Belichick surfaced the tax issue when talking about CeeDee Lamb, who this week signed a four-year $136 million contract extension that will enable him to stay with the Dallas Cowboys and become one of the highest-paid wide receivers in the NFL.

“Dallas is a pretty good situation,” Belichick said. “Got a great quarterback, got a good team, got a lot going for you. Does he want as much money as possible? Yeah, of course. But is it really worth it to go out of town to wherever and not be playing in the environment and the opportunity that he has there in Dallas? A decision you have to make as a player, like … you want to try to get as much as you can from the team you want to be with. If you’re already on that team, then how much is it really worth by the time you move, you know, pay your 50 percent tax, or your millionaire’s tax in New England, you got that one too. You know, what’s really a differential?”

Hollins is a locker room guy, depth piece who is no risk and can be cut, try not to overthink it. I'd put him and Bourne in same category, 50/50 either is on the team week 1 in September.
