Oh well, i wouldn't be trading Butler too.

Leaves the cornerback position thin if you lose both Butler and Ryan.

It feels like a mini silver lining victory whenever we lose a player to someone in the Colts division

 

[Love The Drake]

Im relieved its not the Jets Steelers or Ravens

49ers have 2 former Bears QBs. Do they sign Cutler to make the trifecta?

There's also the possibility the Patriots could be preparing for life after Minitron. Given the hits he's taken and how quickly Welker fell off a cliff, it's a consideration.

It's one of the things I admire about BB. Where he can, he's looking to fill needs a head of time.

How do you figure that "Welker fell off a cliff"? If you mean because he had Peyton "I hang my receivers out to get their heads taken off" Manning throwing to him, I'd agree. But he was also on a team that had Demerius Thomas, Eric Decker, and Julius Thomas..

Mingo will keep riding his "potential" to at least one more contract after also the Colts realize that his body just can't maintain an NFL physique. Amazing. Got paid even after just being a ST player here.

Thats not what im saying. Kraft intervened on wilforks behalf when the front office was playing hard ball. The monies not coming out of bbs pockect, its coming out of krafts.

Kraft should keep his old, spineless fingers in his pockets or alternatively in that bimbo that he keeps parading around but please just far away from intervening with BB's plan.

If they don't get cooks than i can see floyd being the next best option.

As if those two players have anything in common.

Saw that a bit ago. Guess Sheard visit didn't go so well.

Come back on a cheap deal, rebuild your value with a season of total dedication and go cash in next year Jabaal.

Because his 2013-2015 statistics rather clearly show he fell off a cliff?

I'm concerned JE could go down the same path if he continues absorbing some of the big hits he's taken. Welker's history of concussions caught up with him and not that I'm saying Minitron is in the same boat but he's taken some bloody big hits for this team.

Apparently not.



Left without a deal. Plus the news that the Fish have Timmons coming in tomorrow.

Come back Sheard

Free trip to Miami though..

I hope not. Jordan Matthews is nothing more than a slot receiver. a mediocre one at that

Matthews put up good numbers with mediocre QB's would hate to see what he could do with Brady.

 

[PatsFan2]

If building a potentially Elite Denver type Secondary means not having Brandin Cooks I am all for it. Also the Pats have Michael Floyd in their back pockets but they have to play it like he's getting atleat 4 Games he can't help us in those.

Day Two: We need Hightower and Butler resolved. I hope we extend both.

Then comes the smaller contracts:

I would love to sign Odrick who has great versatility on the D/L either as a Tackle or End and you know BB and MP will use him to the best of his abilities and mix it up.

One year prove it deal for Connor Barwin where he might not start but where he can find a niche and set himself up for a bigger contract next season.

Sign a savvy veteran who will play hard to get that championship ring. Choose a DE from Dumervil or Peppers. I imagine DeMarcus Ware is going to be too expensive.
