Patriots Player Departure PATS TRADE JAMIE COLLINS!!!

[PlanB]

feels like when we heard that Nomar was traded but it turned out OK

 

[hornetfb85]

Were gonna flip that 3rd for Luke Kuechly. Feel it in my bones.

 

[IllegalContact]

They're in win-now mode.

maybe because they're waiting to hear whether haden or thomas win the rochambeau game and goes to the pats

I think BB must have thought not as highly of Collins as we thought.

He apparently thought enough of him to offer $11 million per.

Tom "E for Erroneous" Curran is the ultimate tool. To blame Collins for the Denver loss after the Oline totally poopoo'd all over itself all game long, and Gots missed an XP, is pretty nose up Bills arse. If the Oline plays half decent, the Pats win that game going away. That's not to say Collins sucked on those plays, but to scapegoat Collins for the loss over the Oline is a bit much.

The point is not blaming collins. I am guessing that he is saying collins is susepectible to bad play more than most people see it.

Well, its a 3 round pick for 8 games really. If this happens offseason it's at least a 2nd round pick. Also lets not forget that a Browns 3 round pick is essentially a Patriots second round pick.

This isn't my understanding from reading this very thread. It is apparently a Browns compensatory pick. So it is at the end of the round. Totally different situation.

He's not worth Von Miller money, but I wish they could have found some kind of middle ground. Collins has always been one of my favorites.

 

[TennisBallHead]

I swear to god if Tom puts us in a position to win again come January and the defense lets him down ONCE AGAIN then i'm going to lose it.

Tom has let himself down as much as the D has, though.

Adam Schefter ?@AdamSchefter 38s39 seconds ago
With Jamie Collins contract coming up, he was at one point asking for what one league source described as “Von Miller money." Von: 6-$114.5M

no chance BB would ever pay anyone that kind of $$$$

2016 has been a weird year.

Not worth THAT

And we couldn't get Gordon out of them

No, we clearly didn't want Gordon nor Joe Thomas for that matter.

 

[DaBruinz]

We all knew he wouldnt be resigned, and BB just got Van Noy. A 3rd just seems to low to me, but maybe may value perception is completely out of whack which is completely plausible.

This is just BS on your part. Many of us felt they'd get a deal done. The Patriots have the money to have signed Collins to a long term deal. But Collins wanted nearly 50% more than the Pats were willing to offer if the numbers reported are even close.

 

[RobertWeathers]

They have the space to resign him or franchise him if they want. We clearly were not going to come to an agreement with his representation.

Bus Cook is not a pushover.

 

[FrodoBagginz]

Obviously, some players are only in it for the money. Good luck to the team willing to pay him Von Miller type money.

 

[A man named Brady]

Most talented LB in the league IMO, very very bad from Bill.

Von Miller plays in the NFL

 

[DaBruinz]

No, we clearly didn't want Gordon nor Joe Thomas for that matter.

Gordon is suspended again.
The Browns already said they weren't trading Thomas no matter what.

 

[stelfans]

Well, thinking a little more clearly. This is typical Bill. You're not playing as you should? Plus i cant sign you to fair money? Lol good luck somewhere else.

Van Noy please stand up!

 

[PittPatriot]

We hate our coach.
