It's been an interstate offseason for the patriots they've you -- -- look at their -- see your position you've talked about this west there's a franchise at that tender on the table for you you yet decided. Every minute decision yet upcoming here got to camp in June any feeling yet in terms of bomb making that camp this year with the team. My you know I think we're we're we're still kind of waiting -- you know I'd I'd really like to be there are so you know it. I don't know December 01 way or another right now. Market -- got Madrid and I -- that I would have liked beer. Those mini games. Sure with the draft in the past. Has saying they're ready conversations at all me once that gotten past that have. Have you talked and when the pages -- negotiates on the long term. -- I think we're all on the same page and amber all you know try and says collectively come together and and make something happen -- You know I think -- by machines and other or we're on the same page and -- where we're trying to work towards. That long term deal west he talked about it the -- it's something that you you want you feel that you earn that with what you've done here with this patriots in last couple years. Yeah I mean I think anybody you -- plays -- organizations. You know I'm not a good job over the years. You know once your -- port so. And I am no different from you know any other guy that's humility can. And calm you know they're the main thing is it's really just trying to keep a little head about it. And down -- you make sure that you're making the best creations herself but. The same time you know good results in a position where you play for great team and and and hopefully do great things in the future. -- what's a few weeks back we talked about the other mini camps and I -- became us that you probably right now we're leaning toward maybe not attending in nicely wanna be there is there. Is there something that's changed since there is just getting close to that you realize how bad you wanna be part of this. You know I I think wages you love to play ball and you know I think assumes even so her body feel like crap -- and you know what it's. It's still pretty bad you know. Until prior month ago and tiger financial security and you're you're you're ready to play agent and so. Buddy film grade then and -- fuel grade and and you know I just I want to go to my teammates don't like out there in them and get better and endured for the next season. We're talking a patriots not receiver Wes walk east everyone west seems to be on the same page I wonder how that relationship right now with the patriots in terms of any sort of negotiation going on. You know I mean we're just you know kind of moving along and and really just you know -- -- -- a great relationship with -- Trojan you know with mr. Kraft and with the you know the front office and everybody you know also. You know -- -- I don't think there's any sort of hard feelings on and on my side or their side and then. And I think we're all looking forward to third 2000 we'll see -- -- and you know and hopefully do some some big things there and and and I think that's gonna start also visit the camp that we're having this weekend for ages. Our seven the thirteen. I'm very Boston and and really looking forward could that be an out there are posters. Sure -- gonna develop a lot of future wide receivers and any NFL and -- in -- -- there but that's one thing that that the your team I think you realize that it's also business and it. It help covered all their bases to cut outside a lot of these wide receivers just depicted done. You know he got -- to bar Gaffney had -- Not people say why don't they made that preparing for west -- there was a whole book they wanna keep that depth at wide receiver rethink of the patriots accumulating all is what issues. You know I think it's great thanks competition it's I think it's no different from you know cultured policy in the past and -- You know I and L football team win games and letters and the and you gonna do -- And you know I think -- we can really open and you or certain. They reload. Though senate -- and now all you actually Washington we signed -- -- Stallworth bit org apnea -- straight all world don't end of that year. -- Home respect -- and also pretty good receiver and that your current. I feel like it's it's the same a good deal of old back now and and and find out who can really contribute we can really help us this coming year. Where -- talk about you can't come up this weekend I wonder is -- against west going to be there were you surprised that. If he came out and talked about your situation as a former patriot now work in there on the NFL network. I mean now really you know. You know I -- -- you know it has on what didn't think -- tablet. Yeah I mean you know a little bit little bit surprised to -- that I know that he knows -- the business as it is and and you know are -- positioned that you spent per game and that. You know he he kind of you know. You know put me out there -- -- that. Bit stronger on ma'am I'm not too worried about it you know our our our group really a few times and so. So it's called good if not below him and all those and -- You know we had to go back on well. They'll look back through the way the -- that -- -- -- the patriots have handled some of these similar situations are you look at Logan -- -- right involved in that. You know Deion Branch in years past there before you suck they Samuel -- the can kind of be around for that -- do you look at that you talk to these guys and say what. What are my -- should expect here in dealing with the business side of the knowing the patriots. Yeah I mean the I think it's pretty consistent so I don't think it's like -- -- I think it's mean it's paint paint and those guys or anybody else -- It's it's their Aussie and and they stick to it and that's why they're so successful -- -- -- early in the playoffs each hear him and you know I -- two point you know he could proceed -- -- -- to -- -- -- -- -- and don't want to you know kind of grow quicker than. And and be part of in the future. We talked to -- a couple of weeks ago about the way backing amended west against the giants and wonder for you as a player. You know you said your body a month ago wasn't feeling good one about thinking about that game itself does that game. Ever goal weight is losing a game of that magnitude is that ever -- leave your mindset you try to refocus on 2012. I think eventually it does I mean you'd you know you learn from and you move on and and you know hopefully. You know get our region next men. And you know because -- playing those as being for awhile and one -- -- back from then come back from a stronger in. And you know -- -- We were able to do that and knoller net charge to them. And move on from it you know it is just occurred a lot longer in -- at all to -- game -- Are you hung out but the derby your quarterback Tom Brady told Peter King today but he wants to play ten more years could just see Tom play another decade. -- in this league.
