The reporting surrounding Christian Gonzalez and the New England Patriots has officially become exhausting. One day, we're hearing the two sides aren't close. Then Gonzalez's trainer says things appear to be moving in the right direction and New England's offers are getting better. Then another report suggests maybe things aren't quite as far apart as we've been led to believe. So what are Patriots fans actually supposed to believe? At this point, I just want it to end. New England knows what it needs to do. Give Gonzalez the guaranteed money necessary to make him happy and make sure one of the best young cornerbacks in football remains a Patriot for a VERY long time. Yes, New England still has years of contractual control. Yes, the franchise tag could eventually become part of the conversation. Don't let it get there. Get this finished and enter the season knowing arguably the best player on your roster isn't going anywhere. Then there's another Patriot I think we're sleeping on. Kyle Williams. A.J. Brown is obviously going to command attention. Romeo Doubs continued developing his chemistry with Drake Maye throughout the offseason. And there are plenty of reasons to be excited about some of New England's other young receivers. But Williams gives this offense something extremely valuable. Speed. Maybe he doesn't immediately become WR2. Maybe he isn't even WR3 when the season begins. But defenses have to respect his ability to get behind them. That alone could create opportunities underneath for A.J. Brown, Pop Douglas and the rest of this Patriots offense. Drake Maye showed us what he can do throwing the football downfield last season. Now he has another weapon capable of taking advantage of it. Don't sleep on Kyle Williams. #Patriots #NewEnglandPatriots #ChristianGonzalez #KyleWilliams #DrakeMaye #NFL Photo Credit: Eric Canha IMAGN Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
