There is zero chance that the NFL awards the Pats ANYTHING in the form of compensation. This is the most hated franchise in the league, outside of New England, and any form of real justice would be viewed by the rest of the country as another way that Belichick/Kraft has manipulated things to promote their own evil agenda.
I agree with you. But, My question: to punish the Jets they necessarily have to give something to the Patriots? They could eliminate a second choice of them and eliminate compensatory picks if they have this draft or next one.
Its not the ideal world but i will be satisfied.
I do wonder if Spygate/Deflategate whiners are generally the types of people who are unsuccessful in life and looking to make excuses.
I would say yes, you have to compensate the Patriots, or everyone would tamper. If you tamper and steal another teams player and only lose a draft pick, it would be like taking a player in the supplemental draft.

Spygate was about BB flipping the bird to Goody for his action in implementing casual law, bypassing league governance protocols and enacting changes pertaining to game day operations that NORMALLY are to be discussed, debated, vetted and voted on by the NFL Executive and Competition Committees. In his own way, BB stood up to NFL tyranny- which was foolish of him because he didn't have the political support but he did have a point.I think this case ... if proven true is more analogous to spygate than anything else. The minor offense would be doing something not permitted by NFL rules (tampering). The major offense would be not heeding the recent NFL memorandum sent out regarding tampering.
We got punished in spygate for not heeding the memorandum which is what Belichick alluded to recently - the filming was a minor part of it. If the evidence is there then this case needs to be punished at a higher level than any tampering cases previous to this ... mostly due to the recent memorandum
- a precedent setting punishment to set an example.
You missed a step. Woody was warned earlier in the year about tampering.I think this case ... if proven true is more analogous to spygate than anything else.

It is almost impossible to hide/erase a digital trail (just ask Hillary). If the NFL (and that's a big if) somehow gets into the Jets phone records they will be caught.
Not if they took a page from Hillary and did all their communicating on private, personal lines.
With the 6th pick the New England Patriots select.........

Leonard Williams....AKA the second coming of Richard Seymour!
Belichick would trade it back most likely. Which the way this draft is stacked would make a lot of sense.With the 6th pick the New England Patriots select.........
1st round pick loss, 500k fine. this story would lead sportscenter for the next month.
Brunell would run out of tissues!
