THE official Patriots trade deadline thread.

[TheRainMaker]

I was doubtful of all this "premium" talk precisely because of the cap, but they should still get a JAG LB & RB and I am worried they wont.

It was a stupid report by Glazer and I didn't take it seriously. I mean, what "premium WR" was really available?

 

[BadMoFo]

Aaron Rodgers probably wishes this happened one week earlier.

It was reported that teams have contacted the Giants about trading for OBJ, since the Giants are in selling mode. The Giants already made their price pretty clear this offseason: two first round picks. Maybe they've gone down some, but I'm sure it still costs a king's ransom to acquire him. In this sense, almost every player in the NFL is available "for the right price."

If the giants are his 40 million bonus

I could see giving up two first if you could get the giants to eat his full 40 million $ signing bonus. That would give him an average salary of like 14 million for the remainder of this Season, and then the next 5 seasons. That would be a steal and make it worth 2 first

That sounds like a bad idea, when was this?

A few years back. 2014 maybe? She was the one who broke the "Dobson was shouting at JMD" story and BB basically called her a liar. She came to the board to defend her reporting as she was getting killed.

 

[chasa]

I can't recall seeing her talk sports on any of the tweets I see.

she no longer covers the patriots, or possibly sports. i'm always surprised shes still on the list of folks for that feed.

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Looks like any WRs that were avail are gone.

Maybe look at possible upgrades at special teams?

 

[Kontradiction]

LMAO this thread has hit 17 pages and the team is probably not going to do anything at the deadline.

 

[Fatmancryin]

Sources tell me that BB traded a chocolate frosted donut with sprinkles for a jelly stick.

 

[Snooky97]

Surprised no one has gone after Landon Collins.

What a bad trade.

I called on behalf of BB. I have it all worked out.

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Jags asking for 2 3rds for Fowler? Good luck with that

You probably can't see it unless you scroll down. She was first on my page to the right where you see Twitter updates. Every time I see her on here, there's some stupid tweet she has to defend. Now there's someone talking what would happen if she gets fired.

Makes sense. Chocolate, while awesome, is kind of a one-note flavor. Jelly, on the other hand, is sweet, a bit tangy, works well with sweet and savory items. You know, a versatile addition to the team.

The NFL needs to get with the program and move the trade deadline to at least week 10

I’m assuming there’s probably something in the current CBA that might prevent them from changing it, i don’t know, I just think it’s still too early.

Week 8, to many teams are still thinking they have a chance, and also, week 10 would further reduce players salaries making it easier for top contenting teams to take on the remaining contract.

 

[Palm Beach Pats Fan]

So where is this "premium WR"?

Same place as Gordon's suspension.

BB the GM is losing it....

 

[Keyser Söze]

Ugh. Will be frustrated if we do nothing. I just don’t think we’re good enough as is.

Another irresponsible report.
