NFL News 2021 NFL Free Agency/Trade News & Discussion: March Edition

I really like the idea of Harry for Isabella. I think that would be good for everyone involved.

Isabella is graded below Harry, for what it's worth.

 

[long distance]

Excellent blocking TE..& I mean EXCELLENT

He was my low key binkie this FA, oh well

With him this could be strongest line in the history with 3 TE sets .. and Cam would have minutes to decide where to go with the ball

 

[Uptown]

Alright, who gave BB their stimulus check??..Spill it..

 

[Hammer of Thor]

weve gone quiet. What is bill up to

Yea Patriots got a PPP loan for $300m lol

Agreed. For a minute there, I thought we signed him. We’d have been UNSTOPPABLE in the run game at least; hell, we may be now anyway lol.

I prefer Henry and jonnu, but that wasn’t the discussion. The discussion was whether we had TWO TEs like that, like Hernandez and gronk. Again, I like the signings. My point was that it wasn’t like we signed gronk and Hernandez level players



Ha, I’m very excited. Trying to remain rational, same as I have in the past when we’ve had boring free agencies.


Yeah, I think they’ll be really useful pieces that will take advantage of the right things in the passing game. Not game breaking matchup nightmares, but still.
Jonnu is actually great at YAC.

I agree they aren't on that Kelce/Kittle level yet. Who knows, in the NE system with BB they definitely have the potential of reaching that top tier.

The point I was making was that these 2 new dangerous pass catching tight ends is the reason we don't need a WR1, in the same way we haven't had one since Moss and have thrived most of the time.

 

[venecol]

Posters: no receiver would sign with the patriots if they have other choices, with Cam being signed
Players: 2 WR's and 2 top 2 TE's sign with the patriots

I think we are getting Jimmy G on a trade and a reworked contract.

Yeah, agree. The agholor signing makes more sense now too.

Source or just personal speculation?

 

[Lagaffe_07]

Why would SF part ways with Jimmy without a viable replacement?

I’d rather trade for Minshew.

Bucks interested in White

Trubisky is better suited for Shannys offense

we all know they are cheating the salary cap, so I'm sure they'll find a way to make it work...

Milwaukee?

 

[mgteich]

Let’s slow down a little bit. I’m happy about the signings, but...
Henry and jonnu are not close to gronk Hernandez level. They were the top 2 TEs on the market, but they’re still tier 2 TEs- not at kelce/Waller/kittle level. Henry is not that type of dominant matchup nightmare- but he’s a good player.
I’m happy we got them, but we didn’t just got Kittle and Waller for example.

So, you're saying that we went from the very worst TE group to maybe the 5th best? And that isn't enough?

 

[mgteich]

Milwaukee?

my thoughts exactly

usually when we don't understand a process, we say it is "rigged".
