Dont you expect NE to draft another RB or bring in a FA RB for next season?

Depends on how BJGE runs this season yes/no?
The Pats do have many picks to play with next year. What's the feeling on who they take with the 2 firsts/2 seconds? Are they grooming Hoyer as Brady's replacement?
Do they take a RB with a first?
Who knows?

Rubbish. You wouldn't get a 4th rounder for BJGE, you would be lucky to get a 7th.

Maroney is going to go on to prove you completely wrong by the way. I though he was about to have a great year here with the additions of Crumpler, Gronk and a second year Vollmer but obviously not. I am among those that believe that there were other problems that we are unaware, maybe attitude or something.

You gotta be *****'n me? Haven't you learned, players that leave this system
rarely if at all, become more successful somewhere else.

I hope he wasn't being Ironic.

We will likely both draft a running back and bring in a free agent or two. After all, none of our running backs are under contract for 2011.

At this point, I expect us to extend Faulk and tender Green-Ellis. We could try to re-sign Taylor or Morris. In any case, we still will need to start to address to the running back situation.

Curiously, running backs are ready to go (or not), whether they come from other teams or are drafted. It is a position that is addressed when there is a need. In general, the first couple of rounds is where NOT to draft a running back, unless the draft is particularly weak at that position. The value usually isn't there. In any case, 2011 is a shallow draft. We won't be counting much on after the early rounds. Of course, the good news is that we have 7 picks in the first four rounds.

Maroney got us a 4th and the pats needed to give a 6th away.

You guys are rediculous. BJGE beat out Maroney, simple as that. If BB thought Maroney could help the team, he wouldn't have traded him for the all world 4th round pick.

Maroney won't prove me wrong, he is the backup RB in that system and his stats will not change.

BJGE wasn't a first round pick, so I doubt he'll catch too much hate around here. Most people I think have lower expectations for him aside from Troy Brown I guess.

I'm not inventing anything you dueche, I'm merely stating my opion. My opinion is that if in the middle of the season when Taylor and Morris may be hurt and BJGE is called on to carry the load and the running game struggles, I can see the same folks who are pro BJGE suddenly become more critical of his performance now that he is no longer the long-shot bubble guy.

Let's see. He said "BJGE is made of glass," expressing the sentiment that in fact, BJGE is not made of glass, but that idiots will say he is.

I'm thinking that's pretty ironic. But don't mind me, I'm just a senior writer editor

Welp, ya got me there, Grey. "Should not" would probably have been a better choice. Douchebag


















would be such a word.
