So, if this trade were to actually happen, Belichick would get his franchise QB and then bring back Patricia at year's end to suckle at his teat once more. The talking heads would laud him as a genius and shove "The Patriot* Way" down our throats ad nauseam. Good times. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patricia trades the Cheaters the 3rd overall, they take Tua and then after Patricia is fired, he is named HC of the Cheaters. 4D chess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is much more palatable than the tongue-in-cheek narrative I created. Patricia has proven to be less than a stellar HC and, if he takes over in NE*, that's not a scenario that worries me. Plus, Patricia might get punched in the face by Josh McDaniels, if 'the chosen one' isn't appointed HC. ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said married in! And we all have fun with it! My wife is a Lions/Tigers/Wings fan but cheers for Buffalo whenever we arent playing each other. The children are Bills/Sabres fans (I gave mom Michigan even though I'm a Syracuse fan). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a good scout but bad on this stuff. I kind of feel the same way on the Herbert to Miami smoke out there now. That has to be for Tua to slide, no? Could be, but most of the guys have said the same thing including Schefter. Allbright, who I think had shown to be pretty credible on this stuff, does think Miami takes Tua but said that some teams just don’t like tua. He said there is a giant schism in the league over him. Some teams see him as “more brittle than Pat White” while others see him as the next Steve Young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aristocrat Posted April 18, 2020 Share Posted April 18, 2020 a trade back from 3 to 23 would be what...this years 1, 2, next years 1, 2 and a 1st after that as well? if they get a hof'er it is worth it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It takes two to tango. Thankfully not every GM is a pure idiot like Bill O’Brien. The only thing I’d value the Pats have are draft picks. Even those are limited. No cap room and an aging, uninspiring roster. Even if they dangled Gilmore, that’s a CB on a big contract. Hardly the centerpiece for a QB. I think their biggest splash possibility is cutting a bunch of people and signing Cam Newton. But that’s further thinning an already unimpressive roster.

It was something like 4 first rounders to make the jump, not even accounting for future picks being worth less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even the Ricky Williams trade wasn’t that big Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
