Harmon did his due diligence after hitting the open market, but the decision to remain in New England was not a difficult one. “The free agency process, it was a good process,” the safety said Friday in a conference call with reporters. “You got to go out there, you got to be a free agent, you got to see where people value your skills at, what you put on tape for the first four years of your career.

Early First-Period Deficit Dooms Bruins In High-Scoring Game Vs. Oilers
Share this: The Boston Bruins dropped Game 3 of their current four-game road trip 7-4 to the Edmonton Oilers on Thursday night. The Oilers scored two early first-period goals, and the Bruins could keep up to Edmonton’s explosive offense the rest of the way. The Bruins showed a little life in the first period when they made it a one-goal game. But the Oilers took back control, and B’s interim head coach Bruce Cassidy pulled goalie Tuukka Rask, who allowed five goals, in favor of backup goalie Anton Khudobin. To hear what Cassidy said after the game, check out his interview with Jack Edwards and Andy Brickley in the video above from “Bruins Overtime Live.” Thumbnail photo from Perry Nelson/USA TODAY Sports More Stories Source link

Dontari Poe, Falcons Agree To Terms On Reported One-Year, $8M Contract
Share this: The defending NFC champions are doing everything in their power to get back to the Super Bowl. The Atlanta Falcons announced Thursday they have agreed to terms with free agent defensive tackle Dontari Poe. Poe’s contract is worth $8 million for one year but could increase to $10 million with incentives, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported, citing sources. A two-time Pro Bowler, Poe arguably was the top defensive lineman on the free agent market. The 6-foot-3, 346-pound nose tackle is an excellent run stopper and should improve an exciting defensive line that includes 2016 NFL sack leader Vic Beasley and defensive tackle Grady Jarrett. Poe also made headlines last season by throwing a perfect jump-pass for a touchdown — a highlight the Falcons
Kony Ealy Excited To ‘Learn From The Greats’ After Trade To Patriots
by Zack Cox on Thu, Mar 16, 2017 at 3:32PM 2,178 Share this: The New England Patriots were able to bolster their pass rush while giving up almost nothing last week, trading the 64th overall pick in the 2017 NFL Draft to the Carolina Panthers in exchange for defensive end Kony Ealy and the 72nd selection. Ealy addressed the New England media for the first time Thursday, expressing his excitement about the opportunity to play for a perennial Super Bowl contender. “Well, first of all, I would just like to thank New England and the whole front office for allowing me to come and learn from the greats, learning how to take my game and bring it to the next level,” Ealy said. “(I’m) just coming
Kony Ealy Should Fit In With Patriots, Because He’s All About Doing His Job
Share this: Kony Ealy has been with the New England Patriots for less than a week, but he seems to be picking up the team’s cliche terminology quickly. Ealy used some form of the phrase “doing my job” five times during his introductory conference call with the New England media. Here are some sample quotes from Ealy, who was acquired for a swap of day two picks from the Carolina Panthers. “I just look forward to just coming in, working hard, just doing my job and trying to help contribute. That’s all.” “Really, I just want to concentrate on doing my job and making the most of it.” “Everything else will take care of itself if I go out there and do what I’m supposed to
