    R4/103 Layden Robinson OG Texas A&M

    Not here last year in that they had a say in the guys that are here from last year and want to keep them, or that they were here last year, saw them practice, study, work out and play and know that some of them are not good enough? It could really cut both ways, but I’d probably go with the latter.

    2024 NFL Draft 4th through 7th round gamethread WITH SPOILERS

    I think there needs to be a mix of high floor/low ceiling guys and low floor/high ceiling guys. If you take Maye and give him Mitchell and Suamataia, but they bust, it’s a good chance Maye busts, too. There such a deficit of talent on offense that simply having competent players is a huge...

    2024 NFL Draft 2nd and 3rd round gamethread: Baruch atah Adonai WITH SPOILERS

    My assumption is the Steelers felt comfortable with him having no ACL after their experience with Hines Ward. If he never had it his body learned to compensate for it and it shouldn’t be a huge problem.

    2024 NFL Draft 2nd and 3rd round gamethread: Baruch atah Adonai WITH SPOILERS

    I keep reading this as "Tony Franklin" when ever anyone mentions Troy Franklin and I have to take a pause and remember kickers have to wear shoes now.

    2024 NFL Draft 2nd and 3rd round gamethread: Baruch atah Adonai WITH SPOILERS

    Polk's physical characteristics and testing remind me of someone: 6'0, 198 lbs; 4.45 40-time, 1.43 10-yard spit, 36" vertical Obviously Polk had a more successful college career and is a higher rated prospect ( was given a 75 on NFL.com's rating)

    The Krafts

    My biggest complaint against Kraft is the incessant tag line "We are all Patriots!" any time the Pats had success and a microphone was put in front of his face. Are people really desperate to go back to the previous owners? Billy Sullivan was a mediocre (at best) businessman who had to be...

    Patriots' 2024 Free Agency Thread

    And like @67YAZ said Minny would only consider a trade that includes #3, but if the Pats are using the third pick to get a franchise WR, why not use it on MHJ, save $$$ and future picks? Using using multiple seconds and firsts to get one WR is a waste for a team in with a shallow talent pool...

    Patriots re-sign Anfernee Jennings

    Also, the Pats can see where their cap is after the draft and see how Judon is moving in early camp and if the cap space is there and Judon doesn't look cooked, then offer a one year extension that makes him feel wanted and uses some of the space.

    Eliot Wolf will be in charge of the personnel department,

    See the part about not being able to develop players. Not sure what your quibble is. BB gets credit for creating a culture that developed unheralded players into stars or vital contributors, see Brady, Edelman, Koppen, Samuel, Onwenu, Mason, etc. When the players stop developing suddenly BB's...

    Eliot Wolf will be in charge of the personnel department,

    Exactly. If BB's culture made greats out of unknown/unheralded players and an unprecedented run of success, then his culture would also be responsible for the team not being able to develop players and falling into the basement of the AFC East. BB fucked up a lot of things to take himself from...

    Patriots' 2024 Free Agency Thread

    Could the Pats have told him he's getting tagged and he thinks (i have no idea of the contract structure of franchise contracts, so this is just a wild guess at best) that his franchise deal is a set salary, with nothing to negotiate, so if he signs it without having an agent, he saves the...

    Cam Newton vs. 3 dudes

    I saw this thread title and thought it was going to be some meta analysis of Cam Newton’s tenure as a Patriot vs that of Mac, Zappe, and Hoyer and why the Pats should have kept Newton. Average-sized, non-combat sport champion/Navy SEAL people running up on Newton and trying to fight him is the...

    The Michael McCorkle "Mac" Jones Thread

    Mac was both a symptom and a casualty of the disfunction of the last 5 years, but especially the last two seasons. He was not THE reason the Patriots have been shit post-Brady, that’s squarely on the shoulders of the person making roster decisions and coaching. BB drafted a pocket passer with a...
