THE official Patriots trade deadline thread.

[signbabybrady]

And yet they had him on the field in pre-game warmups in Chicago.

He's been traveling with the team so he can learn the system. I think he was just getting in a workout. Pretty sure they'll use the second spot on Rex.

 

[jah]

but dorsett can't even get onto the field right now, why trade the guy that's clearly better then him?

Age.

 

[SHOWTIME15]

Damn

 

[TommyD4207]

Sanders would be another. Although might be too late for that.

Sounds like the Broncos are firesaling it, Marlins-style.

I wouldn't expect that much is off the table right now.

 

[Ladypatsfan]

Nothing is going to happen.

 

[Joey007]

Eagles got Tate.

Those bastards

 

[SHOWTIME15]

I think we are all going to be disapponted by the end of the day...

 

[Kontradiction]

I don't get why everyone's worked up over a potential WR anyway? This could just be more smoke, and it's not exactly a position of need.

Now, tell me you're trading for Whitney Mercilus? I'm on board.

Unless it's a RB or a TE on the offensive side, my preference would be ANYTHING that improves this defense.

The WR chatter is driving me nuts. No need.

Aside from last night the offense has been cranking.

Pass rush and coverage linebackers please

Unless he can also play defense...I'm not sure it will matter much.

Oh well, at least he'll have fun.

 

[VectorPrime]

Well OBJ and maybe Manny Sanders are the only receivers worth a damn still out there.

Because it was floated. It's the same with the Collins rumor.

Team needs:

CB/S
LB
PR
TE
OT3


So let's talk about getting a WR!

Overall age of the WR group. Edelman and Hogan both are past 30. Hogan will be more expensive to extend than Dorsett. There are valid reasons.

Julio. Failcons ain’t doing jack this year.

For a 3rd for half a season.

Age and cap purposes. If they do indeed plan on adding a bigger piece that takes on salary.

Might want to add RB to your list with Michel getting dinged up twice and Burkhead's status for the rest of the year in the air.

 

[Nordberg]

What's the matter Bill.....nobody willing to come and play for free? I'm going to be pissed if they don't pick up somebody to improve the team.

 

[luuked]

I mean if you have people seriously thinking that someone like OBJ is possible then of course those will be disappointed.

 

[Boston Boxer]

i think now will be the last time to get any good return for Gronk. I don't think he look right and don't think he is going to return to any kind of previous form. Love Gronk, but injuries and the retirement talk is too much.
