Patriots/NFL 2024 Off Season - Mac Jones Traded to Jacksonville - QB Jacoby Brissett signs 1-year contract

[Seidenbergy]

Chiefs signed Matt Araiza

He should've been signed earlier imo.

 

[GatorMike]

Once the Patriots release JC Jackson, they'll have just under $100 million in cap space.

 

[FrankerC]

Thats plenty to build a legitimate team around Daniels or Maye. Lets see how this new shift of management works.

I dont believe a word that guy said.

He's gross

I can’t believe we’re still over two months away from the f***ing draft.

This is interminable.

 

[BradPark22]

Alternating striped two-toned blue jerseys, drop shadow numbers, silver pants, red facemasks. Hook it to my veins.

Bring it back and dress the Revs up like the 1994 World Cup team with the denim jerseys while you're at it

Boooooo cincy booooo

I hope the colts don’t franchise Pittman but they will

 

[N o o d l e s]

Boooooo cincy booooo

It’s ok it will just make him disgruntled and then he’ll be the missing piece on offense once Maye has a year of experience

21M for higgins

Cap rising 30 mil saves a lot of teams asses with being able to use franchise tag this season.

Also gives NE no excuse to not franchise someone like Owenu.

Not Pats related, but I thoroughly enjoyed this interview.

Patriots already have no excuse not to tag Onwenu and give them more time to work on an extension. If they cut Jackson and Godchaux they will have over 100 million in cap space, we will know they are not serious about winning games or spending money if Onwenu is playing for anyone else next season.



The surge in cap isn't great for teams like the Patriots and others that already had a lot of cap space. Unless Mike Evans still doesn't re-sign with Tampa, there's going to be a lot of teams fighting to sign Calvin Ridley, potentially the only wr on the market who had more than 750 yards this season. Ridley is nice but if his market starts getting into 20 million aav or more, he's not that guy.

Giants are just waiting to pounce on Onwenu and everything I read says he will be available.Course I read Marvin Harrisson should be Pat's pick to while most say QB

5 takeaways from episodes 3 and 4 of 'The Dynasty: New England Patriots'

The latest two episodes of "The Dynasty" focused on the Patriots solidifying their dynasty, and the drama and scandal that followed.

Worried about the Chargers poaching Onwenu

I’m torn.

I really feel in my bones that Harrison will be a HOF player, but there’s such a hole at QB. I don’t know if any of these QBs are that good… What to do?

HOF WRs simply don't matter as much as even an All-Pro QB.

Zero rings combined for Moss, Fitzgerald, Carter, Megatron, Owens, Julio, Steve Smith.

The greatest WR, maybe the best player ever period, still had Montana and Young.

You made a very compelling argument.

Yup the extra $30 is actually bad

All the best will be likely kept

However, gotta use franchise tag now and Onwenu would be it

If Troy Brown isn’t in the HOF for wide receivers it’s a joke

I probably went to 90% of his games the guy was phenomenal but because he was undrafted and not doing pushups in his driveway or wearing an anchor of bling around neck he’s an afterthought

I go back to Paul Warfield and Fred Belitnikof and he’s a winner who could excel at special teams, block, even defense

 

[EverettMike]

:::hat doffed:::

I should also make clear that I don't agree with someone like Felger who thinks a WR like Moss prevents you from winning a Super Bowl. If POS Asante Samuel makes an easy interception Moss it the most skilled player on the greatest team in history. If Dan Quinn got his head out of his ass and told his OC to run the ball Julio has one. Larry Fitzgerald was a defensive stop away from a title, too. Owens and Steve Smith ran into the same dynasty in back-to-back years.

And it's not like great QBs don't need people to throw the ball to.

It's just that a good QB has way way way more impact on a team and franchise than even the best WRs.

And even knowing all of that it's going to suck when we don't take MHJ. It will be the right decision (whether it works on long term or not, we're looking at the process and not the result), but it's still gonna sting.

With Daniels or Maye on the board, if they use the pick and draft Harrison people should be fired
