This is Folked Up

 

[Hammer of Thor]

Yep

I hope they read the OL/OT part as well

Now add, “The Patriots need to figure out a way to get Brady and Gronk back on the roster.”....

 

[Jackson 2]

Oops, I must've made a mistake...like Parcells & Glenn...

What was that one about? Was it like your mistake? Hopefully, you can explain both. Or, at least own up to yours instead of blaming a 79 year old guy for something he said 22 years ago. Please enlighten us as to what you meant when you referred to Sony M. as"she."

 

[Hammer of Thor]

Also some roster shuffling at DT and TE.

The Easley pick was unacceptable having two bad knees coming out of college.

And Gronk's back wasn't supposed to allow him to even have a career coming out of college. There are lots of examples of BB the GM taking huge swings at high risk/high reward type picks...unfortunately most don't pan out then you'll have one out of ten that's a damn Hall of Famer (Gronk).

All that said I'm still a results on the field guy. He can miss every draft pick ever, but if the team is competitive every year...that's the mark of a good off-season that leads up to that year.

They were great to watch but im looking forward seeing the guys that are here.

If you really miss them that much we can certainly try

The difference was Easley being a 1st round pick and the injury caused Gronk to slip into the 2nd round. Easley shouldn't have been a first round pick and I don't care the Seahawks were interested in taking him.

 

[Ochmed Jones]

It looks like our run defense up the middle is kind of soft. Maybe Williams signing will help.

I like these young linebackers, especially telez and the Wyoming kid.

another concern is the pass rush. It has been weak thus far.

Rb Harris still not picking up the blitz properly, but looks really good as a runner.

Easly was #29 which for all intents and purposes IS a 2d round pick.

Whatever helps you justify the pick.

It's not that difficult to connect the dots. Michel is pronounced "Michelle". Michel's toughness is being questioned/how fragile his is and that's why he's referred to as "she" and spelling his last name as "Michelle".

It was not a mistake.

Thanks, captain...oh, wait...

Of course you don't care that Seattle targeted him, because that doesn't fit your narrative/whine. Everyone here knows that you have a keener eye for talent than both Belichick and Schneider. You probably thought that the Bills were fools for drafting McGahee or the Cowboys for drafting Jaylon Smith. Sometimes gambles on top 10-15 talents work out, sometimes they don't.

You would totally kill it as a NFL GM if you could go back in time and re-draft all of the Pats picks after waiting two years to see how well all of the players make the transition from college to the NFL and which players suffer career altering injuries.

That technology is just around the corner, you just have to be patient. Until then, you'll have to settle for being a poor man's Capt. Stone on Patsfans.com.

So, a "she" is necessarily fragile?

Okay Billy's white knight.

Is this a rhetorical question?

 

[Jackson 2]

Not to me. How about you?

 

[TheRainMaker]

Ugh, do you really think @captain stone made a goof calling him a "she"?

Why do you think he would say that?

A player that keeps getting injured and missing time is going to have their toughness/durability in question - hence the reference to "she".

He's physicality on the field has also been in question.

Harry should be in this category more than Michel.

Ok, so based upon what you wrote and what he wrote, is it safe to say that you both think that a lack of "toughness and durability" ( your words) is a feminine trait?
