When did the Pats hire Doug Whaley?

I love it. The team needs a little edge. They need to play like bullies

Yeah makes sense. It seems like Robbins has maybe turned a corner here, he’s looked pretty good

I complained a bunch when they re-signed Hamlin because I think he is terrible and I feel like McDermott likes to stay in a comfort zone with guys. I was fearful having that dude around would tempt coach to go with ole reliable and that’s where this is probably headed. Hopefully, Bishop or someone steps up. The Simmons thing has been a no brainer for 2 years now, perhaps he wants too much. I am guessing McDermott is trying to light a fire with his public comments but that stuff is cheesy. Get the Bishop coached up…the mistakes he is making are fixable.

Is Ryan Stonehouse better than Brad Robbins?

Interested to see who shakes loose in the competition between Jake Bailey and Ryan Stonehouse down in Miami. Pretty surprised Camarda is gone already. Robbins can't be it.

If anyone wants to dig deeper into this: The book here is an amazing read. Some video breakdowns in the dude's blog as well: https://theofficialpetersreport.blogspot.com/2020/08/the-2017-new-england-patriots-pass-game.html

Who knows what happens, but I've been all about Moore all off-season. His skill set is tailor-made for what we do offensively. It's extremely early, but it's a good sign that he is making plays.

PFF is terrible

The franchises are friendly for whatever reason. Bears-Bills have made multiple trades the last couple of years.

I don't think we see a lot of him. He is lacking in the personality part of things. It's not good TV.

Cool. The UDFA they obsess over is probably center Jacob Bayer with the mullet. Probably a bunch of stuff about Ray Davis’ difficult upbringing. Dion will steal the show and Bobby Babich will be good TV as well.

You know these are goiing to terrible

I think the Douglas ship has certainly sailed, between White and Jackson signing plus Hairston and Strong. Not to mention they gave his number to Hairston. I liked Douglas, but I feel like he was just terrible this year, and getting younger and more athletic at the position was the way to go. Now if we wind up with Dane Jackson starting corner, I will be extremely disappointed. I agree on those DL guys will get a shot at some point with teams, especially Smoot and Jefferson. Phillips is tricky because he has pretty much proven he can only play in Buffalo. Cooper thing is interesting, but with how Beane values draft picks, to give up a third and not even attempt to bring the guy back it certainly feels like they think he is done. Miller should sit out most of the year and then sign with a contender late as a hired gun as a designated pass rusher.

Agreed. Having a real receiver in that spot adds a ton to what you can do offensively in those heavy formations.
