Patriots owner Robert Kraft spoke with reporters on Wednesday, getting emotional at one point when he talked about how the Myra Kraft Giving Back Scholarship fund has already raised more than $3 million in honor of his late wife.

Before that happened, Kraft broke a little news.

The Patriots owner said a deal that would make guard Logan Makins a “Patriot for life” could be finished “soon” according to multiple Boston writers on the scene. We can’t imagine Kraft would say this publicly considering the history with Mankins unless the deal was essentially done.

If a deal happens, it’s a reminder that ugly contract talks can always end well if the player is good enough.

Also Reiss on Twitter:

Kraft quote on Mankins: "Probably you’ll see our good friend Logan Mankins will be signed up soon, hopefully to be a Patriot for life."

Cheers, BostonTim
 
Good, maybe now Mankins can afford a nice warm glass of STFU.
 
Awesome. The signing should give the Patriots more cap space to sign another defensive linemen.

How many more can we buy with @ $5M? 1 very good or 2 jags?
 
I guess <s>time</s> money heals all wounds.
