Patriots Not Expected to Franchise Tag Trey Flowers

The New England Patriots won Super Bowl LIII, and every player had an important role in the process. Defensive end Trey Flowers helped the team come this far. Flores was important in the defensive play, and the Patriots used his talent.

Some said the Patriots would actually use the franchise tag on Trey Flowers at the beginning of free agency. however, latest reports suggest that things have changed completely.

New England is no stranger to passing on talent if they are convinced that they will have to overpay for the player. FLowers’ tag is expected to cost over $17 million dollars. This sort of affects the Patriots’ flexibility to fix the roster. Trey Flowers is considered as an excellent player at the moment. Do you remember the last time New England spent a lot of money on a defender while making a poor decision.

This may be a surprise for some if you take into consideration the Patriots defense in the 2018-19 playoffs. Tom Brady will turn 42, but they lack offensive players, and boosting the defense is of utmost importance.

Flowers will have to think of the many offers that are coming his way. He will hit free agency, and many teams will be interested in his service. If the Patriots defense has problems next season and fails to support Tom Brady, this will be one of the biggest mistakes Bill Belichick has ever made.

The Patriots are usually playing smart, and this move surprised some of their fans. Things may take the wrong turn overnight, and we do believe that head coach Bill Belichick has a backup plan. Will it work? Is Trey Flowers important for the Patriots? These questions deserve an answer, and everyone is waiting for that. Who is coming to Foxboro? Keep your thumbs up, and hope for the best.
