Maybe it’s just wishful thinking on my part. This defense is just at another level when Jones is playing.

I think that is the plan honestly, there is no other reason for Clark to be saying things like "there is a right time for both parties on Pats deal" other than they know they can wait out this CBA thing is probably keep more of the team together.
Watkins is either being cut or singing a new deal that lowers his cap number to what his dead money number would be, no way around that.
