PATRIOTS NEWS Ryan Cowden to join front office

[varjao]

Regarding Wolf staying I don't have a huge problem with that, I was furious watching Ladd McConkey tearing us apart and felt like there was no excuses to keep him but it seems he was able to sell to Kraft his version that the blame was all on Mayo and given how bad Mayo was, I can give him some little credit.

In the end, it seems like he can adapt to a new role, he will be on board with Vrabels vision and that works for me, it's really complicated as well to go nuclear and clean house, we all talk about that but in reality, just like in a normal business you need to make some transition of knowledge, give the new people in charge some context in what did work, what did not and why, and if he feels like it was not all his fault and can back it up, then OK, maybe he is on a short leash but for now they will make do , and I'm ok with Vrabel being open minded about that. That doesn't signal any weakness for me.

One thing I know is that BB wouldn't have drafted Maye so for me comparing to the 2023 draft, we are better even though all the other players mostly suck, but the pick he had to make, he did. Some say it was an obvious pick, it seems like for BB wasn't and if Kraft hesitate for another year, we would probably be a little better, drafing past #10 and with no QB.

Some people claim to know the earth is flat. I think your claim is about as valid.

My point is that McConkey wasn't the BPA or even close.

Fiske, Sweat, and DeJean were better picks, IMO. You also had Newton.

So, five arguably more highly talented players that even fit positions of need and we should have picked McConkey? Why?

Powers-Johnson was better pick than any of them.

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Are we getting new wr scouts?

 

[The Gr8est]

Are we getting new wr scouts?

Let’s start with a better WR coach.

Maybe Wes?

I sure hope so, I have no idea why they kept Belichick’s scouting department on this long?

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

Dolphins fans were kinda mixed on wes fwiw. Definitely need work on both ends though, scouting and developing

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

That’s the pick I wanted in the 2nd round

Same here.

Tua was out much of the year so the WR numbers were not great in 2024. Who knows how much Wes was responsible for 2022 and 2023 but at least he didn't **** it up.

2023

2022

 

[BUSTAMOVE]

Same here.

I know once the Senior Bowl and Combine and especially FA things change a bit
Who do you like as it stands now with the 4th pick

 

[SteveKiner]

Same here.

my son wanted Powers-Johnson. I was hoping for Newton when the pick came up

Sounds like a bright boy.

Newton would have been a good pick as well.

Really tough to say, as free agency will change everything. If they get a starting LT i would go with Mason Graham.

Get Graham then snag Jack Sawyer a few rds later. DL energized!

I like that idea. Grab Egbuka ( WR) with the second round pick Then move up for Sawyer.

I was just talking to a friend yesterday
I said we must get a LT and OL in FA because I don’t like any OL in the top 10 of this draft
I love Campbell’s leadership and attitude but his arms could be a problem
Saying that OT would need a trade down which I would be fine with if we need OL desperately
#4 I like Graham a lot. Non stop motor. Great attitude.
But I am looking at Carter and Hunter also if they are there
I agree. It’s to early
But I love draft time

 

[WhatJustHappened]

Build through the trenches, we lost at the LOS.

 

[KCSVEN]

Hmmmmmmmm, we shall see

 

[Koma]

Hmmmmmmmm, we shall see

There were a couple posters who maintained that all Glaser did was proofread contracts, schedule meetings and tasks like that. That doesn’t explain how she got screen time in The Dynasty, but that means her departure should have a minimal impact on the organization.
