TRADE FOR A WR

[Triumph]

NO

Draft is that way to go.

Getting a LT would be the single most effective movie to making Drake a better QB.

What if your rt , lg, and c still sucks? If you don’t have more than 1 or 2 good linemen the LT can only help so much. Plus Ot was an issue all year but when people got open quick we moved effectively. We just have nobody to do this consistently or break through whenever drake has to improvise ( which drake is among the best in the league at already).

A good line helps but thats 5 people. Both are needed but One elite level wr is the single player who can help the most.

Yeah, for a Foundation Piece: a Starting Caliber Left Tackle

 

[PATSYLICIOUS]

suppose it comes down to balancing the age old questions - which position is deeper in the draft? out of the top candidates in the two positions, which subset has the BPA...

I want a tackle... think we are taking a receiver... but that might chance now Vrabel is in town...

Ive always thought you take them as the situation best presents itself. Nearly every year you are seeing top wr’s get traded /shopped. Lt’s not so much. From the looks of it No ot in the draft is worth pick #4, cant force it if its not there. Maybe 36 or a trade up is the way to go.

If you think there are no OT's worth the 4th overall pick, it opens the window for a trade down, add an additional piece to shore things up... even if its in next years draft

I wouldn’t hate a trade down, but i need to know more about these 2 guys and how they compare to the next tier. Supposedly Campbell may not even be a tackle at the next level. Im not sure how i feel about tet either.

If there were a joe alt type and i wasn’t in love with the wr i would be all over it.

Between Robinson (in Y2), Onwenu, Strange (back from injury), J Andrews (back from injury), D Andrews (back from injury), and Sow (back from injury), my hope is that we will have three solid players at RG, C, and LG.

That would be the hope, but in this case we are talking about considerable upgrades at 4 spots. In the scenario that we’re only upgrading the LT and LT only imo it is not helping as much as getting drake a legit #1 wr.

Draft WRs too. These players account for 47 TDs.

Chasing after FA WRs who want more money is a recipe for losing.

Detroit
Draft Brown 1263 12 TDs
Draft Williams 1001 8 TDs

LA
Draft Kupp 710 6 TDs
Draft Nacua 990 3 TDs
Draft Atwell 562

Baltimore
Draft Flowers 1059 4 TDs
Draft Bateman 673 11 TDs

Washington
Draft McLaurin 1096 13 TDs

I agree here, the interior of the line should be pretty solid. They need tackles.

Id be willing to give up a mid rd pick for a solid wr option. Who’s available though? That’s the rub. People weren’t knocking down the doors clamoring for Jeudy. He turned out to be a risk worth taking. Hopefully he keeps it up. Good turnaround story. Id give up a 2nd for a proven starter that has age on their side.

Deebo or Garret Wilson come to mind.

We should approach the off season, IMO, under the assumption tgat
Robinson may stink and never be worth a damn
Onwenu is what he is, skills only play G and better not be our best ol
Strange can start at c or g but is in the mast tread of his contract
J Andrews is nothing
D Andrews will probably retire or be cut
Sow is nothing

Hoping on this crew is the kind of thing we did last year that created such a mess

 

[Real fan 02]

Should trade for a LT too.

SBB.. since my theory of trading for a WR.. ( DK Metcalf please) seems it's starting to generate buzz on the forum.. do you think is travels to Foxboro?

Love both players. Could you imagine what McDaniels could do with a Jack knife like Deebo.

Deebo fell off this year. Garrett Wilson is a completely different story.

Oh I get it.. a deeboo that fell off is still better than any current patriots WR on the roster... Wilson absolutely a baller.. top 5 WR in the league.. woody would never trade him to us..

Because the draft has worked so well for that over the past 5 years

For JMIII? woody needs a QB. Wilson is disgruntled and might leave in FA in 12 months.

Doubtful nyj would trade Wilson here though, and zero chance he hits fa.

Some good names I’ve seen are metcalf and dj moore.
