    All this tells me is that the Patriots are either going to make a play for Armand Membou (don't be shocked if he is picked that high as I wont given how mid this OT class is), Tet McMillian (something I would advise high caution against) or Travis Hunter (assuming he falls that far).


    Take your pick if you are New England.

    Blast has it correct.


    For that matter, Daniel Jones is likely the Number One QB unless Anthony Richardson can beat him in Training Camp. Should he fail?!.... well...

    I read articles that Wilson is not staying, Fields is gone and Darnold is signing elsewhere. Is the plan to go into the season with a second-string QB and tank the season to set up drafting a QB in `26?

    Did I just hear Kevin Bacon say: "Sounds like a plan"? LOL.

    Rudolph/Winston. Start Mason with the ultra conservative offensive game plan. If we go down big against the good teams, bring in Winston for some entertainment.

    They chose to move on. They return Queen, Wilson, and Holcomb, and they signed Malik Harrison.

    they opted to spend 10 mil on Malik than a couple mil, Pennies in NFL contract terms, on Roberts. It’s one thing to get younger, but did you get better? ERs run stopping will be a hit.

    I'm honestly fine with mason over Rodgers. Rodgers i feel wants a lot. And I don't feel like wasting money on someone who is not going to get us a ring.

    What do the Titans know that we don’t? Taking two of our underperforming castoffs is enough to get any GM fired

    It's pretty clear, but it's so hard to believe any team would be stupid enough to bypass the great options already off the board in hopes of bringing in 2025 Russell Wilson or Aaron Rodgers.

    I mean, that’s potentially one of the most inept things I’ve ever seen a front office do. I very literally think a stacked roster and a middling QB like Rudolph is better than rolling mainly with what we've got and adding either of those guys.

    I like Roberts, but he was a one trick pony. When Roberts is on the field, addible to a pass.....eliminates his effectiveness.

    I'm not. Neither is a good option...better chance of winning more games in 2025 with Rodgers though....I go with Rodgers.

    If Rudolph is the only FA option, might as well start Skyler Thompson or a rookie.

    I feel the same way. I really wish we would have went after one of the younger CB’s. We really needed a DT as well. I was hoping to come away with Byron Murphy at CB and Jonathan Allen at DT. This would have positioned us nicely to take best player available in the draft. I’m not confident Slay will actually sign on with us. It sounds like Philadelphia is already playing games and saying they haven’t released him yet and they may want draft compensation in trade for him. They say that after they realize there is interest in him.

    Wish we would have signed Fields and built up the rest of the team around him now we may overspend for an aging QB. We have completely lost all leverage with Rodgers and or Wilson. Khan and Tomlin messed this up. Tomlin’s indecisiveness and continually stringing along players is really starting to hurt this organization.

    I am still very confused on what we are trying to do as an organization. We now have two deep ball threats and an offensive line that isn’t capable of maintaining their blocks long enough to allow for those kinds of plays to consistently work. We have glaring holes at DT, Cb, Slot CB, RB, QB and OL Depth and not enough draft picks and probable cap space to fill all those holes.

    We are taking on big time contracts on gaining players which does not enable us to properly fill out the rest of the roster (Watt, Metcalf and potentially Rodgers).

    We are still hanging on to coaches that are hurting the growth and development of our existing players (OL Coach, OC, DC). There is a reason Sam Darnold chose Seattle over us even though we had better weapons.

    My fear is we will lose Pickens this year and this trade for Metcalf will be all for nothing as we will be replacing a talented young Wr with and older Wr and giving up salary cap space and a draft pick to do so. The reason I fear this is I am not confident that Tomlin evokes trust in his players when it comes to how he communicates with them and their utilization. As a result players get pissed off and distrust him. I have seen it with Pickett, Rudolph, Fields, , etc.
