Someone who knows more about salary cap than me  - please explain.

If this is a one year rental. And we can roll over cap space to next year.

Then we have 6 mill less in cap space next year when we may want to upgrade that o line with a free agent.

right? i have never properly understood the cap rollover rules.

if you can roll over cap space - why ever do a rental - unless you are gunning for the SB?

please help-

I think you answered your own question - we are gunning for a Super Bowl this year.

Wow I would say Henderson would be above Bouye but that's my opinion. 

Yeah it's a fair opinion, I just haven't really seen enough of Henderson yet to definitely put him over Bouye right now. Longer term obviously Bouye should be better, but I think against the Cowboys Bouye played better than Henderson. People forget Bouye was an All-Pro just a few years ago.

Someone explain to me why if he still that good we got him for only a 6th?

Gilmore is still a good corner, but I suspect this move is to help the Patriots save cap space. Also, it is a typical Patriots move letting veterans go and managing to replace them with mid round talent and other teams castoffs. 

I'm happy with Gilmore for a 6th rounder. Good addition!

    • The good news is that we are pretty uniquely well established to address all of our needs this season. We have $14m real cap space, and something like $40m in trade deadline cap space. Not sure exactly how that works out. But, we have the room to absorb any bad contracts. With recent rule changes regarding retention, that went into effect this season, we now have a huge advantage in the trade market.  On top of that, while we do have obvious needs, we also have a glut of talent in certain areas that we struggle to find ice time for. We are over-stocked on scrappy talented lil-guys, strong defensively sound 3rd liners and shutdown left shot dmen. Whether it's a package or separate deals, idk. But, one of each from Stank/Blake/Nads, Erob/Carrier/KK/Jank, and Walker/Nystrom; throw in some 1st round picks (and frankly any other prospects they want) and we should be able to come out with a 1b to pair with Bussi and either a 2c with size or a 2c and size.   TL/DR We got the money, you got the stuff?
    • I don’t  think 6’4 was ever considered small or undersized. Baby hands tho, yes that was his thing That’s an interesting idea, like an optical illusion? Sounds like you have personal experience with this! 
    • in the 25' draft the Carolina Panthers had hired Brandt Tillis someone who actually understood how to build a successful team & build through the draft .  this team was yes mismanaged for years prior to Brandt Tillis joining the team in 25' & rarely done anything right in the draft outside occaionaly getting lucky on an UDFA such as Jalen Coker who's dad coincidentally happened to be a huge Carolina Panthers fan, hint hint  ...just saying
