    My mock using a simulator

    I've been playing with the mock drafts, but limiting it to known Pats contacts. Imperfect system I know, but thought it might be interesting (below is contacts roughly assigned using PFN rankings so take with a pinch of salt). #3. Maye or Daniels #34. OT: Suamataia or Paul, WR: McConkey or...

    Hosting Blake Fisher on top30 visit. Candidate for #103? Or will he go before that? https://patriotswire.usatoday.com/2024/04/05/patriots-hosting-ot-prospect-top-30-visit-friday/

    How Belichick lost his place in posterity

    This is why I'm so mad at the travesty of the deflategate 1st round pick loss. Michael Thomas, Derrick Henry, Hunter Henry, Chris Jones, Tyler Boyd and Xavien Howard all went in the next picks. I mean BB could have picked a random unknown safety but imagine Brady with Derrick Henry or Michael...

    How Belichick lost his place in posterity

    You are correct 0.500 teams have made the playoffs, but so have 7-9 teams so where do you cut off? No 0.500 team have ever got past the divisional round. Whereas a 9-7 team has won it all. Thats my justification anyway, you may not agree. Running the numbers again to seasons below 0.500 makes...

    How Belichick lost his place in posterity

    I agree, it was beautiful. I'd add the owner shrewd enough to trade a 1st for a coach with a losing record, and ballsy enough to support him starting a 6th round pick over his 100m QB. Perfect storm of QB, HC and owner.

    How Belichick lost his place in posterity

    Completely agree Tom Landry is a really good comparison to BB's success arc bookended by lesser seasons, although BBs heights were a lot higher with x6SBs compared to x2. I'd also say Chuck Noll is also a good comparison as follows a similar career pattern with x4 SBs, but wasn't as consistent...

    How Belichick lost his place in posterity

    This is an interesting comparison, thank you for developing the topic. If you don't mind I'm going to move the goalposts slightly. The reason is x4 of these coaches are still active and with a decade less coaching than BB, also Holmgren and Dungy had shorter coaching careers. I also prefer to...

    How Belichick lost his place in posterity

    Go on then its off-season. Whatever the motives, thank you for taking the time to put the info together and present it so clearly. However it is difficult to judge only looking at BB and Brady. What happens with other HOF QBs/coaches? To look at this objectively you need to explore comparable...

    How about some FAs on defense?

    A lot of the D are FAs in 2025. These include: DL - Barmore, Judon, Wise, Uche, Godchaux, Ekuale, Watts. LB - Tavai, McMillian DB - Peppers, Duggar, Blescoe, J.Jones, Wade You'd think they'll have to extend at least a few of the DL and S this year, or go external. Otherwise that a lot of...

    PATRIOTS NEWS Official 2024 Free Agency Thread - Day 2

    You'd think there is a gap for a veteran defensive back. CB/FS or both. Be Mills if the trend of this free agency continues.

    Player Signing Josh Uche back on 1 year deal

    Really like having Uche back. Actually wish it was a longer deal.

    Focusing On The FOUR Openings At OT

    Some nice moves to sure up the right side. But who plays LT?

    PATRIOTS NEWS Official 2024 Free Agency Thread - Day 1

    Still expecting starter quality signings at OT, CB, DE, FS, WR and QB. Still players out there, several of their own.

    And then there were [s]Four[/s] Five...

    Interesting. How many coaching and front office staff are left? Quick count leads to Covington, Pelligrino, Brian Belichick being listed all as coaching assistants, and Deron Mayo S&C. Unless I've missed someone thats it apart from the Krafts. Pretty full turnover coaching and front office as well.

    Patriots Player Departure ST Matthew Slater announces retirement

    X5 all-pros, x3 2nd team all-pros, x10 pro-bowls, x3 SB champs and x5 played. 16 year pro. Perennial team captain on an iconic dynasty team. Influential good guy and leader. Fav moment was the overtime coin toss in the SB against the falcons 'heads'. If any pure special teamer can get in the...

    Trade Back or Straight QB Pick

    If I was a betting man, and BB was still at the helm and was a bit younger.... My money would be on a solid vet QB and WRs in FA, a modest trade down for an extra first next year, and draft a blue chip LT in the first, and take a swing at WRs high second. And resign Onwenu, Henry, Stevenson and...

    Trade Back or Straight QB Pick

    Depends what they are being offered in return. Examples in recent history include: The 2022 Bears to Panthers Bryce Young trade was 1st overall for 9th overall, 61, 2024 1st and 2025 2nd. The Dolphins to 49ers Trey Lance trade was 3rd overall for 12 overall, 3rdR and 2021 and 2022 1st rounders...
