PATRIOTS NEWS Vrabel's Staff Discussion Thread (Discuss related news here)

[PatsFan2]

Vrabel - connected to Titans and Browns players (former HC and heavily involved consultant, respectively)
McDaniels - connected to Raiders players (if they liked him) (former HC)
Brown - connected to Bears, Panthers and Rams players (former OC for first 2 places, and Assistant HC for Rams)
Marrone - connected to Saints players (former OL coach in '22-'23)
Williams - connected to Lions players (former DL coach that Hutchinson loved)

Those guys stand out to me

That ship has sailed.

If we were just a few players away from serious contention, I'd consider it, but I don't see him as someone to build the offense around on a second contract. The Jamar Chase factor is real. No way he comes close to living up to his previous production IMO. At best I could see him with about 60 catches and 800 yards.

I think Chase reduces Higgins opportunities and he’s underrated because Chase is so good. If you extrapolate Higgins stats in 5 games without Chase to 17 games you get
105 catches, 1737 yards and 10 td’s
He thrived more without Chase

Meh some guys might've liked him fine, or at least respected his ability. For instance - Brandon Lloyd who came to NE from Denver because he liked Josh McDaniels.

 

[captain stone]

Mick Lombardi was our WR’s and QB coach with McDaniels in 2001
Thought he did a good job with Bourne and Mac
He is with SF as a senior offensive asst
Is a WR coach a promotion
Maybe Josh would want him

No thanks.

He would be tempting in the Third that guy below.

I was saying I’d love him on the Pats during their game with Texas. Dude is a ballplayer.

Last season it felt like a bunch of volunteers.. Noone still to this day knew what exactly McAdoo did when be was here..

and that is true no matter how many time folks post McAdoo's role which was the development of Milton.

Glad to hear they’ve got a plan!

Can you post that again... many are going to be on suicide watch after we sign him.

 

[Joey007]

That ship has sailed.

Maybe a guy like Meyers who had ties here to begin with. But otherwise yeah, any other former Raider immediately gets scratched off the list.

 

[captain stone]

I'd rather just have kept Bob Bicknell; this other dude here didn't impress when the light went on him last season.

 

[Joey007]

Wait,

So this means the 3-4 is back.

Doesnt look like it.

[captain stone]

Hoping Houghtaling really did show something with the Titans earlier, because otherwise hiring a Bears o-line coach from last year is just moving from the frying pan to the flame.

Same with our new TEs coach... Didn't see much wrong with the TEs last year; so why make that change?

 

[RobertWeathers]

Wait,

Yes. They had some big kids playing NT.

I would imagine multiple fronts like we used to do.

 

[Real fan 02]

Hope Tavai knows his place!!

We need to find some ty Warren's and some Jarvis greens!

 

[captain stone]

Good. Let's hope it begins with the depahtures of Notso the Fraud Clown Wise, lip-smacking doGchow & the piece of **** Jalopy.
