Patriots/NFL NFL & Patriots off season

[CDJ]

I feel like more money should get them to ignore a lot of those problems, then hopefully they start winning again and it gets cheaper to attract players.

Yup, they’ll have to pay a Suck Tax to land ppl. Fortunately they have plenty of money to do that if they’re allowed to spend

When you don’t waste posts complaining....

To be fair, 90% of your posts over the last few years involved complaining about belichick.

Please show me the 10% of nice so I can delete or edit

Thank you

I worry about that last part.

Honestly think it’s because NFL players don’t want to live in Attleboro or Foxboro vs a place like NY or Miami or LA or even a major city like Pittsburgh. A lot of these guys wanna be able to go out, they’re for the most part in their 20’s. Idk if the Chili’s is what they’re looking for.

That’s a factor that we forget- we’re not competing against major destinations with Boston or even Providence. We are competing against them with Foxboro. And then of course we do poorly on the NFLPA scorecard every year too, and that’s obviously on our owner

I'm not sure there's a coach in the league players want to play for more than Tomlin. I think it might be that simple here.

Honestly, I've found the geographic criticism a little unfair. The Jets practice facility is further from Manhattan than Foxboro is from Boston, same with the Falcons and Atlanta and Bears with Chicago. A lot of the practice facilities are in the suburbs, so players aren't primarily working in the city anyway, so they're dealing with a significant commute, whether it's during the week or on Sundays, and that factors into where they'd choose to live, just as it does with Patriots players. The Patriots just get a bad rap because media talks about where teams play versus where they spend the week preparing.

Not even making Seattle an offer for DK Metcalf is down right embarrassing.


They better hope to God they sign Chris Goodwin because they are going to looking even more ridiculous than they already have.

Free agency is five minutes old, and X has already crashed.

Not off to a good start.

 

[GatorMike]

Chiefs sign San Francisco LT Jaylon Moore, who I really liked as a fallback option for the Patriots. Pats probably looking at Cam Robinson and/or Dan Moore for LT at this point.

Chris Godwin re-signs with Tampa Bay for three years.

 

[The National]

Running outta WR options

Right on cue Godwin back to the Bucs. What a joke

Rappaport on NFL Network: "The Patriots are basically in on every player."

 

[Shaun]

bert breer really crushed his reporting

 

[GatorMike]

Drew Dalman, the best center on the market, signs with Chicago.

Rappaport on NFL Network: "The Patriots are basically in on every player."

I think the Patriots are just there so the agent can say "another team is offering us 50% more, can you meet in the middle?"

Certainly a possibility.

Rappaport's comments were in connection to Godwin's deal with Tampa, where it was reported that Godwin left $20 million on the table to re-sign with the Bucs. Host asked Rappaport who else was involved with Godwin, and that was part of the answer.

So sick about hearing about how Patriots are in on everyone or are interested in everyone

 

[CDJ]

Twitter going down right before nfl free agency is peak Elon

 

[Shaun]

[DiggityDog]

[Smitty93]

Milton Williams to the Panthers and Dan Moore to the Titans

 

[GatorMike]

LT Dan Moore to Tennessee.

It's Cam Robinson or bust at this point for the Pats.

Robinson kinda stunk for the Vikings vs Det and LA at the end of the season,.

Agreed.

He was so bad that it kind of makes me wonder if he was playing hurt.

Patriots sign CB Carlton Davis from the Lions.

3 years, $60 million.
