Like what would happen if Randy Moss could play TE. Could alternate him between inline TE and outside WR. Complete mismatch and biggest advantage at the position since Gronk. He’s great enough that there’d always be a spot for him on offense, even with the money already invested at the position. That having been said it’s only a pipe dream, I don’t see the Pats using the resources needed to trade up that high for another TE even one as promising as Pitts, and if that was the plan I doubt BB would’ve splurged on the two he got in FA anyway.If the Pats are going to trade UP for a player, I want that player to be Pitts. Astonishing what QB insanity does to normally rational fans...Pitts is the best player in this draft and it ain't even close
3 TE sets? That’s a whole hell of a lot of talent at TE. Who needs WRs?If the Pats are going to trade UP for a player, I want that player to be Pitts. Astonishing what QB insanity does to normally rational fans...Pitts is the best player in this draft and it ain't even close
So you think he's good at run defense?No he hasn't
If they were going to trade up for Pitts, they should not have signed BOTH Henry and Smith.If the Pats are going to trade UP for a player, I want that player to be Pitts. Astonishing what QB insanity does to normally rational fans...Pitts is the best player in this draft and it ain't even close
you realize nothing is written in sand at this point ,right? Henry has injury issues...they could easily make a settlement if Pitts gets in range. The latest is Pitts may go at 4 so probably a pipe dream.If they were going to trade up for Pitts, they should not have signed BOTH Henry and Smith.
I disagree. Having DEPTH at the TE position is a GOOD thing. Pitts being able to play BOTH give you tremendous flexibility. Also, it doesn't put a TON of pressure on Pitts to be a HOFer right away.. He can learn at his pace.If they were going to trade up for Pitts, they should not have signed BOTH Henry and Smith.
CAR can do it cheaper and easier though and DET would basically have same pick.Trade up to 7 is getting realistic:
1 Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence
2 Jets QB Zach Wilson
3 49ers QB Trey Lance/Justin Fields
4 Falcons TE Kyle Pitts
5 Bengals OT Penei Sewell/Ja’Marr Chase
6 Dolphins OT Penei Sewell/Ja’Marr Chase

Fields won't be there at 7. CAR OR DEN will trade to move up to 5 or 6.To go from 15 to 7, I would trade #15, 46 and next years first...only if we could get Fields. I think the Lions would do it.
I get where you’re coming from, but consider where the Patriots were at the beginning of this process. No TE’s heading into the first day of free agency. Pitts was regarded as a Patriots draft target because of their need at the position. The biggest competitor in the division, the Bills, desperately wanted to upgrade at TE and were looking at free agency for a solution.If they were going to trade up for Pitts, they should not have signed BOTH Henry and Smith.
Niners are smoking something. There is no way they are getting a 1st rounder for Jimmy gCan confirm that Breer actually said that. It’s the first question he answered in his latest mailbag. Big yikes.
Mailbag: How Much Would the 49ers Need to Trade Jimmy G?
Here's why the 49ers have a high asking price for their veteran quarterback.www.si.com
He is cheap and he has a role. You don’t trade those kind of guys you hoard them.I continue to think if anyone gets traded its Chase Winovich. It's clear BB doesn't trust him as a 3 down edge guy and he's now stuck down the depth chart behind Judon, Van Noy, and potentially Uche etc. Others in the league with schemes that focus on rushing the passer may be willing to give up something as he's shown some ability to get after the QB and has some stats.
I disagree. Carolina or Denver aren't gonna move up. They don't have to. Unlike many, I'm not convinced that the Jets are going to take a QB. Atlanta has too much committed to Ryan this year to take a QB and they'll probably take one next year to groom. Neither Cincy nor Miami are going to take a QB. The Lions also aren't taking a QB and are probably looking for a partner to trade down with.Fields won't be there at 7. CAR OR DEN will trade to move up to 5 or 6.
so we're 4 weeks+ until the draft....in 5 days SF has gone from "we aren't trading JG, he's still out guy" to "we'll only listen to offers with 1st round picks".....in 5 days
but yeah, they aren't just blowing smoke hoping for leverage lol lol lol
