PATRIOTS NEWS Official 2024 Free Agency Thread - Day 1

[borisman]

who?

I’m pretty sure he was on BGC’s PTP short list. I also think the Pats had interest and there were several people on here who had him coming here in their mock drafts. So his name should be familiar in these woods.

Watch Ridley go to the Chiefs.

Jags are going wild on day 1, trying to build their team around Mac.

Watch Ridley go to the Chiefs.

Could happen and I’d cry and laugh.

 

[Love The Drake]

Come on Kraft.

A splash would be Saquan Barkley
Trade for Fields
Sign Ridley.

Smart. If they believe in Lawrence, now's the time to make a move to try to get deeper in the postseason.

 

[Ross12]

I just want to remind people that if Calvin Ridley signs an extension with the Jaguars, the 3rd rounder that the Jags have to send to Atlanta becomes a 2nd rounder due to the trade terms. So it's not just about money for Jacksonville, but about whether Ridley is worth both the contract AND losing their 2nd round pick. If they don't re-sign him, they only send their 3rd round pick.

Maybe NE just isn’t a desired destination, crappy team and high taxes. Money talks yeah but other teams are spending big so maybe players just want to avoid this team.

Cousins to Atlanta

Sometimes you have to overpay if you want the guys you covet. We’re so conditioned as fans of this team to just laugh at other guys overspending while we sit here with a team void of superstars that is in need of a complete overhaul

Oh lordy.

How bad does Minnesota want #3?

The question is how much do our guys want the presumed QB at 3?

Thank the Good Lord! That’ll be two HUGE regrets for the Falcons - not signing Coach B and signing this “wannabe who couldn’t”. Just think, $180m (100m guaranteed) for a 35 year old QB coming off a torn Achilles injury who has one (yes, ONE) lifetime playoff win! Cripes, Mr Butt Fumble himself (Mark Sanchez) has FOUR playoff wins! UNBELIEVABLE!!

You’re going to get Jacoby Brissett, Miles Boykin and Matt Breida

Say it with me Justin Fields.

Don’t you wish that evil on me Ricky Bobby.
