Horrible signing, if true. He's not a very good TE, and a $2M signing bonus
is ridiculous.

The Florida Times-Union reports in their Saturday editions that tight end
Kyle Brady has agreed to a contract with the Patriots.
The report indicates Brady's deal is a two-year, $5.3 million package, with
a $2 million signing bonus.
"My whole thing was to go out and find a team that wanted me and would show
that by the contract they were offering," Brady told The Times-Union. "Plus,
a team that's within reach of a Super Bowl, and this one always seems to be
among the AFC elite."
Brady visited with the Patriots on the first day of free agency. He is
projected to fill part of the void left by Daniel Graham's departure.
Well, the several "experts" I've read this week said that Brady is the
best blocking TE in football (better than Graham, even), so he does
have some useful football skill. Not at all sure that it's worth what
they just paid for him, but you could do a lot worse than a TE trio of
Watson, Brady, and Thomas. If Graham was looking at $4 million, then
this is a net savings.
But yeah, it sure seems like a lot for a guy with one discernable
skill, even if he is excellent at it.
