But, yes, we should be able pick a QB before NE unless something weird goes down. EDIT: strange wild thoughts. The trade up game changes if Tom Brady is involved. A couple options --> NE trades up to #2 with Giants including swapping Brady and Eli? --> Brady to Denver in a trade up to #5? This offseason is more and more like Madden everyday After trading Garoppolo they now deal Brady in the following offseason. That is wild.

LedyardCTbillsfan Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Maybe they are just trying to shed some salary to give Gronk the money so he stays and they don't make any blockbuster trade. Wishful thinking I know, but the draft can not come fast enough that is for sure!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Tuesday Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Whatever. I view this as win-win. If the Pats have gotten fidgety because of the Bills’ and Jets’ moves and want to trade a boatload of draft capital for a player who won’t play for 2-4 years, all the while poking Brady in both eyes and creating an off-season media feeding frenzy around a “QB Competiton in Foxboro,” freakin’ let them have at it. I will get my popcorn and watch those asshats get what they deserve. More likely: they’ll draft Hurst or an edge rusher. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both the Steelers and Patriots have been frothing all over this kid. As others have noted I kinda doubt they have the ammo to move into the top 5 considering they are always choosing near last. Then again they could be going for another WR like Calvin Ridley, DJ Moore. Don't discount what this team can do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beckham is a great player. He is a diva, but him with Brady's precision would be off the chain. Beckham turns short passes into long gains.

People are delirious. Why would Cleveland do business with the Pats* after Bellicheat stiffed them on Garopolo? It was reported somewhere that the Browns offered more but the Pats* went the 49er route for him. As far as 2 goes, the Giants and the new brass dislike the Pats as well. I don't see anything but NE replenishing their LB, OL, etc and with younger talent. Edited April 4, 2018 by aceman_16 OMG mah speelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slaphappy Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Maybe they didn't think Cooks was worth the money and just turned it into the best pick they could?

That’s NOT what you said you said why would they do business with BB after he stuffed them on Jimmy G. I just told you they did do business. So your point was wrong THERE. I agree they have no interest in moving up take a QB but maybe a stud pass rusher. I think BB WANTS the Bills get #2 then our firsts be enough get the best pass rusher in the draft. Making the cooks trade basically Cooks for a stud Pass rusher.. which be a no brainer. Edited April 4, 2018 by PatsFanNH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amandola will be more missed than Cooks, but the Pats still have a good WR core with Edelman, Hogan, Mitchell, and Britt. So at most they need a better #4. CB They are set but may need another good one (people forget Butler was UDFA) they need a stud pass Rusher the most... as I said before I could see them packaging their two first for seven If Chubb falls that far. That makes more sense to me than a QB to me. Not quite Bills level bad but.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 2 hours ago, GunnerBill said: Certainly possible. I think again the Pats offense makes some sense for Rudolph. If they take a Quarterback in the 1st it tells me that Brady is playing his final year. But Rudolph sucks...unless the Pats want him. 35 minutes ago, 26CornerBlitz said: How does that help the Patriots during the final run of Brady's career? Brady is retiring supposedly.

YoloinOhio Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 Just now, PromoTheRobot said: But Rudolph sucks...unless the Pats want him. Exactly. The world will literally end if the Bills were to draft Rudolph or Lauletta. Fire everyone. They failed. But if the pats take one, just start the fitting for the gold jacket. I keep bringing up why this is, and no one gives a good answer. I’m not saying I want these guys over one of the top 4, given the choice, but the double standard is obvious. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot about Danny Shelton. However, my original point that was a response to how the Pats* will draft up and grab a premium pick. Context does matter. I will say I again... I can't see anyone in the top 4 even allowing the Pats* to get a sniff at their pick. Finally, Pats* aquiring picks doesn't really concern me... Ole' Billy boy is a masterful coach but a lousy drafter. PS here is the post I was referring to: I will not be happy if the Pats pick ahead of us. If they get to #7 or #4, they could move to #2. So yeah.. It WAS what I was referring to Edited April 4, 2018 by aceman_16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
