Actually we do have a couple of trade-down options, assuming the Pats think McCarthy is on the same/very similar tier as Maye, making it a top-4 QB decision. Assume for this discussion that Caleb and Daniels are taken at 1 & 2.
a. move down to #4, swapping with the Cardinals who pick Harrison...
I assume Wolf is trying to move Zappe for a 6th rounder, maybe a 2025. He showed some competence, has tempo, good mobility in the pocket, throws well on the move, and is a confident kid.
Brissett's a solid vet who AVP knows and likes. We just signed him for $8m, not $2m. He's our starter until...
To answer the OP - we're as near the bottom as last year's record indicates, but plugging a few holes can make a big difference.
Having the #3 pick (in each round) in a deep and talented draft class is a great place to be. Yes we could've been 2nd but we also could've easily been 6th or 7th...
That’s not a given. We don’t know what players Wolf has made offers to except Ridley. He may just be a disciplined gm that only pursues guys that fit this team at a decent value, and he’s not under pressure to win this season so he’s waiting. I’m glad he hasn’t traded any picks for veterans...
Love this mock:

#11: McCarthy, #23: Thomas
I think the biggest issue they had the first half of last season was Strange being out and having to play Mafi there. Mafi is a strong run blocker but a total sieve in pass protection. Plus we lost Andrews for a game or two, Onwenu for 3-4 games, and I think Trent missed a game. Anderson and...
If we stay at 3-34-68, I now think we'll prioritize WR and will go QB-WR-OT. Our OL is in better shape now than a week ago: we're good at RT with Onwenu, we just picked up insurance for Strange in Leverett, and have several candidates for LT in Oko, Anderson, and McDermott. Still need to invest...
We made the bid for Ridley Tuesday, which seemed right cause he could get snapped up quick. Then it got stretched out for over a day, which everyone assumed had to do with the Wed 4pm thing with Atlanta's 2nd round/3rd round compensation. Maybe that was the reason for the delay, maybe it was...
We would have had to go to $25m/yr to beat Tennessee’s $23m offer for Ridley: $1m to cover state income tax, and $1m to break the tie.
And who knows if we were even given the opportunity to outbid Tenn?
You'll see - his career's not over and he'll be a starter again some day. If he can improve his pocket movement and make better decisions when rolling out, the rest of his game is fine. And I watched every minute of his time here in NE.
