Patriots Free Agent Wish List

1. Sign Safety Ed Reed - Reed would do wonders for the Patriots Defense. He would bring this Defense together. He is a smart leader that Belichick loves. The Patriots need an upgrade at Safety next to McCourty. He could be the second coming of Rodney Harrison.

2. Resign Cornerback Aqib Talib - The Patriots Defense changed when Talib arrived in mid-season last year. He made them significantly better and is a must keep for the Patriots. His market is up in the air but if the Patriots think they won't be able to work out a deal they should franchise him.

3. Sign Wide Receiver Greg Jennings - Dwayne Bowe was the Receiver I wanted most but since he resigned with the Chiefs I'll go to my second option. I think the Patriots offense needs a change, they need to become more explosive and Jennings can provide that. If I had to choose between keeping Welker and signing Jennings, I'd pick Jennings.

4. Sign Defensive End Dwight Freeney - Freeney would be a great Defensive End opposite Chandler Jones for the next couple years. He can still get to the Quarterback. He's looking to play on a 4-3 team after his play dropped in a 3-4 last year in Indianapolis. He wants to be a pass rushing 4-3 DE and he can be that in New England.

5. Sign Wide Receiver Danny Amendola - I'm ready to move on from Wes Welker and use his money to sign a more explosive outside receiver (see #3, Jennings). But even after signing a receiver like Jennings the Patriots will still have to add a receiver to play the slot and I think Amendola fits the bill. He's previously worked with McDaniels which makes this move more likely.

6. Resign Wide Receiver Julian Edelman - Edelman is a great punt returner and a good back up receiver. He is an important piece to this Patriots team. Belichick loves Edelman and I expect him back.

7. Resign Cornerback Kyle Arrington - Arrington was good in the slot for the Patriots last season. He has been solid for the last three years in New England. You can probably get him for a good price.

8. Sign Wide Receiver Teddy Ginn Jr - Ginn is a terrific kick returner and can provide good depth at Receiver. With Jeff Demps future in question the Patriots need to bring in a player to solidify their return game.

9. Sign Defensive Tackle Desmond Bryant - Bryant's stock is dropping after his arrest last week but has that ever stopped the Patriots from picking up a guy? With his stock dropping, his price will also drop providing great value for the Patriots. He is an excellent interior pass rusher and that is a big need for the Patriots. He's be a perfect fit.

10. Sign Linebacker Kaluka Maiava - Maiava is an excellent special teams player and a good coverage linebacker which the Patriots need. He is the type of linebacker you can sub in on 3rd down to play in coverage instead of having Spikes or Hightower out there. He would definitely help the Patriots Defense on passing downs.

Patriots Free Agent Targets

     Here's my List of the Top 10 Players I would like to see the Patriots Target this Offseason. I am not including their own Free Agents in the List but I will tell you which of their own Players I would Like to see retained. 1. CB Cortland Finnegan, Tennessee - One of the Most Physical Defensive Backs in the NFL. It's no secret the Patriots need help in the secondary and Finnegan would be a Huge Addition. He can shutdown any teams #1 WR. In my opinion he is one of the Best CB in the NFL. 2. WR Marquise Colston, New Orleans - It's clear the Patriots need a Deep Threat at WR to open up this Offense and in my opinion Colston is the Best on the Market. He is also 6'4" and physical. An ideal WR that Tom Brady needs. 3. WR Brandon Lloyd, St. Louis - Probably the Best Fit at WR for the Patriots. Lloyd has had previous success in Josh McDaniels' system. A speedster who will help stretch the field for the Patriots Offense. 4. WR Reggie Wayne, Indianapolis - V...
