I like the start of your post - get that home field. I can see the kid coming in in games that the Pats are up by more than 14 with 12 minutes left, but actually starting when TB is healthy< nuh unh.
Right now the kid looks like the best he can be is a Bob Griese that can run - I.E. 14-23 183 yds, 1 TD or a Brady circa 2001. Not so special until you consider on a wagon type team that might be good enough.
BB had enough of Welker in the dressing room and media (most vexing in that regard since Vrabel) and given Welker's swift fall as a player I can't see what interest BB would have in him.
I had Dobson in my mock, I really wanted him to suceed. He'll be around in camp next year but he's used up...
"Then:
I could see PATS, unemotionally, decide to pick up significant assets for a QB that may have only 1 to 4 years left. (like two number ones plus a pro bowl quality player, for example)."
The team trading for Brady will have to pay dearly ($) for him. Any team dealing for him would have...
I was one of the first here several years ago to come out against Mallett as being a golden arm with terrible footwork, slow reads, no instincts whatever. Glad he's gone. Wish BB was able to get more lipstick on the pig for a better trade result, but whatever. Mallett will not make a dent...
You do realize that the Pats roster cuts will be among the top 2-3 most picked over the next week right? Meaning those teams don't have rosters as good, and their needs are different. I liked Jones myself, but I reckon BB has a better handle on it than anyone here.
It's a process from two directions. Brady declines, JG grows, Brady is getting paid more than he's worth (in the future), JG has one more year on his deal, and continued to grow and learn. It's not just one thing, it will multiple considerations that key/cause the change.
I grew up watching bozo's in the 60's. I know better than most how great this era is, but BB won't be married to the past if its costs the team wins, even for Brady.
Brady isn't what he was in 2007 or 2011. Mentally? He might be better. But not physically. We've got an OL in uproar. He could get hit, he could start having other issues.
Bottom line is when Brady's level of play starts to not meet his contract and/or JG's rookie deal is starting to...
