    Patriots, Jets "top suitors" for LB Dont'a Hightower





    The New England Patriots and the New York Jets appear to be the leading suitors for free agent linebacker Dont'a Hightower according to Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports with "several" other teams still interested and monitoring the negotiations.

    Many pundits were surprised when the Patriots did not use the franchise tag to assure they kept him in-house for 2017. The two-time Super Bowl champion is one of the leaders on the Pats defense and has spent his entire five-year NFL career in New England, making the Pro Bowl in 2016. One knock against Hightower is his durability, as he has missed at least three games in each of the past three seasons and has only appeared in 16 games during a single season once in his career.

    It is unusual for a marquee free agent with Hightower's pedigree to last this long on the market. Expect the 27-year-old to announce a long-term deal with one of his AFC East suitors in the next couple of days.

      The word is they would have traded Butler to NO for for Cooks if he had signed his tender. Hightower is a stud.

        Unless Hightower is going to replace Bradham I am not so sure we would want him. Hicks is younger and cheaper and a damn good linebacker (not Hightower but damn close)
