Patriots/NFL 2024 Regular Season: Part II - If the NFL season ended today, the Patriots would have the No. 1 pick in the draft

[CDJ]

Joe Milton going for 340 and 4 TD’s this week

 

[StreetHawk]

Not sure what difference it is whether we finish first or second anyway because we're not taken Sanders although we should we're going for Hunter so the Giants and raiders need a quarterback so they would obviously take Sanders anyway

I don’t think any of the other clubs have a have a lower SOS than NE should they all lose next week. Only way NE doesn’t draft at 1 is if they win.

Of the 3 win teams only Cleveland is playing a team that has to win in Bal (or they rely on bengals to beat Steelers) to secure the north.

Never know how these games play out when one club is resting guys.

Amazing

We have Maye, why should they take Sanders?

Trade maye for giants pick. Get hunter with that and draft saunders he's way better than maye
Maye was 1-10 as a starter would've been 1-11 if Jacoby didn't come in vs jets and win he's ok but not a legit franchise QB saunders or even cam ward are for sure

This is an outrageously bad take

Nit rea

This is an outrageously bad tak

Not really you get a legit #1 QB and wide receiver who are familiar with each other you can have for the next 15 years saunders is the real deal
Maye let me remind you is 1-10
You put saunders on this pats team they are at least 500

 

[Troublesome 85]

I dont get the Sanders and Hunter obsession

Nor do I see Kraft bringing in Sanders as a coach. Thats a media circus he doesnt want.

He rather keep mayo and fail until his son takes over

I honestly dont know who I want the next coach to be. Someone new and fresh honestly.

After leaving Drake Maye in the game, maybe Patriots coach Jerod Mayo doesn’t deserve a second year

Peyton Manning was 3-13 as a rookie and threw 28 interceptions that year. He turned out to be pretty good no? There is zero talent around Maye and he continues to make plays. He is a keeper in my eyes. Sanders may very well not want to play here per daddy.....do not want that future headache.

Mayo will be back and they will be 10-7

Consider the source.

Sanders is a bust

I see we're still under the impression that wins and losses are QB stats.

 

[McGarnagle]

Trading Maye for the #2 or #3 and drafting Sanders and Hunter followed by firing Mayo and hiring Coach Prime is an idea so bad that a sick part of me wants to see it just for the Trainwreck potential

 

[Blitzkrug]

Sanders is going to bust at the NFL level. Nothing about his game screams good transition to the pros. And then you have to deal with Prime on top of that.

Maybe you take Hunter at #1 if the Pats land there but i'd be personally be looking to flip that pick if they get it. Could easily dupe somebody desperate for a small war chest to facilitate putting a more complete team around Maye

 

[JRull86]

Mayo will be back and they will be 10-7

I just don't see it

Unless Mayo does some serious soul searching this off-season, completely changes how he acts with the media, learns how to actually coach, and the roster significantly improves, I just don't see a path to 10-7.

Honestly his biggest flaw is how much he talks out of his ass, then has to walk back comments on the radio the next day. Believe me it absolutely rubs players the wrong way.

There is no way in hell this team can bring back this staff next year. Covington has been an absolute disaster. I can appreciate what's AVP has done with Mayes development, but there's a reason he wasn't calling plays in CLE, I think that's evident.

Have to get rid of Covington at a minimum, if not both. Would you let Mayo hire two new coordinators? I sure had hell wouldn't.

What's the point of a HC who can't hire his own staff?

 

[CDJ]

I have no problem with them trading down to like 3 or something but I’m also getting to a point where if they just wanna take Hunter at 1 to ensure they get him I’m cool with that too

This guy knows WR, had Nabers as his #1, Bowers as the best te prospect ever, and was much higher on McConkey (had him as mid 1st rounder) and BTJr (10th overall ranked player) than the consensus


I’d also use him as a corner on clear passing downs in close games

You still pointing out Maye’s win loss record proves you know two things.

I would. I don’t get caught up in all the noise. Mayo will be fine 10-7.

Belichick left them a shit sandwich

Mayo was a great player and smart guy

I have complete confidence in him

10-7 in 26

In his two years at Colorado....

0-6 vs Top 25
2-9 vs power conf teams w/ a min .500 record
Choked vs BYU in their bowl game

Sanders is the Temu Caleb Williams.

Ignoring how bad of an idea this is, it doesn't work. Trading Maye would cause a massive dead cap hit to the pats next year.

 

[BradPark22]

Stats don't lie please show me that the Patriots record win Maye is starting is not 1-10? That's a franchise QB?


Well that's the bottom line in this business wins and losses hes 1-10.

Peyton Manning, Troy Aikman say hello.

 

[bruins cup]

I see we're still under the impression that wins and losses are QB stats.

1-10 qb is the main reason. Even brisset won 2 out of 5. Imagine what a legit QB could've done

Peyton Manning, Troy Aikman say hello.

1-10. Even brisset won 2 out of 5

Listen I'm being serious I want them to win for them to do that they are in a good position to draft a legit number one QB and wide receiver we're both play together so they have chemistry that's how you get right back into being a contender not sticking a 1-10 QB back out there

 

[Troublesome 85]

Having the #1 during the worst year. See if u can trade back and get a #1 from a team next year.

 

[DNE3]

No players-of-decade level in this draft. Hunter good but fragile. Sanders sold his fashion merc online in locker room during halftime, fraud. Trade down, draft McMillan, or Abdul Carter. Owner will try and influence first pick, get lost. Joe Milton III 'the project' collected all his practice squad money and will return next year as Joe MIlton III 'project 2'. This is how to measure progress amid the rubble.
