Patriots Rumor Malcolm Butler Mega Thread

[Deus Irae]

Eagles top 10 acquisitions of 2017: #3 — Patrick Robinson

This backs up what hydra was saying. Once moved into the slot he was statistically one of the better slot corners in the game.

You're now citing the opinion of a blog writer on SB Nation. Stop already. Just let it go.

Is this your schtick just to argue just for the sake of arguing. You did it in the dion lewis thread and your doing it here. Why? I have no idea.

I prefaced it by saying I didn’t watch many eagles games. I’m just pointing out that he graded out well according to PFF and there’s more than just the article I cited that agreed that he had a great year in the slot. Don’t understand why I’m getting pushback from this but whatever.

Malcolm:
Even though in a few days you will have a lot more money than I do, I'll still buy you a beer in any bar on the planet where our paths might cross. You gave me one of my two or three greatest moments in many years of cheering for my favorite teams, of which none is more favorite than the Pats.
Thank you! Only the best of everything to you, sir!

Titans stealing our guys ;(

And us saddling their salary cap.

Nice thing is that we have enough money to sign a marquee free agent now!

 

[The Brandon Five]

Ok, time for the Wonder Twins. Trade for Jason.

 

[JMC00]

Guy didn't want to be here.

 

[VectorPrime]

I don’t believe this for a damn second.

 

[Greg]

Guy didn't want to be here.

That was the deal we offered last year. Maybe he thought he was worth more than Gilmore on the open market? I still think he wanted to stay last year.

Clearly this offseason neither side wanted him here.

 

[RobertWeathers]

I'm skeptical.

 

[Jangles]

Guy didn't want to be here.

After the super bowl can you blame him?

 

[PatsFan2]

Guy didn't want to be here.

Yeah right! that would be a horrible deal for a declining player by the Master BB don't believe everything You Read!

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Not going to lie, if it’s true we offered him that and he declined, we dodged a bullet.

 

[Observer]

So, he made more than what the pats offered. Good move on his part.

 

[TBR]

Not going to lie, if it’s true we offered him that and he declined, we dodged a bullet.

What if he accepts? Do the Patriots still bench him after paying all that money? Perhaps, but maybe not for the entire game.

Prob not, since I don’t see us having Gilmore on the roster.

 

[Hammer of Thor]

With how he played last year, yes. But how much of his performance last year was because he couldn't focus due to his contract?

Of course, that in itself isn't a good thing, but if a good chunk of it is just due to that reason, he could be primed for a nice bounce back year with the Titans.

Hmmmmmm.
Hmmmmmm.
Hmmmmmm.
Not buying it.
