I am so used to hearing nothing from Patriot players because of Belichick's creed on shutting the hell up, this is both refreshing and concerning. I can see Roger Goodell swooping in a docking picks because the Patriots tampered. He's sitting there going...


I know it's not tampering, and I know this goes on, but when was the last time a current Patriot player spoke truth like this?

 

[signbabybrady]

Just do better than Judon

 

[Triumph]

He reminds me of Lumpy Rutherford. Freds son.

 

[Ross12]

Wasn't outright saying he was prodding people to sign here, but was instead trying to talk up the region. I think that's smart since location is likely a pain point in negotiations.

 

[VJCPatriot]

Good on him. A leader is always looking for teammates to help improve the squad. I'm glad he's taking some initiative. Will it pay off? Certainly doesn't hurt but as usual money will probably be the main deciding factor on who comes to New England.

Players talking is not tampering. It's when coaches or team executives do it.

Goodell has been an ******* to Patriots for years so I can understand your concern but he would be way out of line here. Players talk to each other all the time and I've never seen a tampering charge levied for it yet.

Just do better than Judon

And better than Bourne.

Players talking is not tampering. Also, it's time as a fanbase we get over this complex. The harsh reality is that no one really gives the slightest of ****s about our team anymore and no one is itching to see us punished. Not in the league office, not fans in general. We're pretty irrelevant for now, no one cares.

I love it. The young leader of the team. I believe Vrabel is allowing guys to to be themselves, and still get I line with the program. Vrabel is a modern NFL coach Vrabel himself didn't mince for words when he was a player. Absolutely love Drake recruiting!

Man.... dammmmm... he didn't sign with us!

 

[TheRainMaker]

He gets the assignment. Good for him.

What did I say? I said I know it's not tampering, it's just different coming from a Patriot player.

How funny would it be if Judon came back to NE this free agency? Wolf trades him to Atlanta for a 3rd round pick for one season and then brings him back the next season.

Judon has lost a step but still a smart and productive player.

That would really be funny for sure. Seems like he likely isn't going to stay in ATLANTA.. so he's likely a FA again.. I'd absolutely take him back as a rotational rusher.. the change of scenery didn't fare well for him he said he really loved it in Foxborough.

 

[signbabybrady]

I'd take him back but I could see him playing a similar role to KVN in Baltimore

 

[PatsFan2]

Just do better than Judon

And Bourne.

Never looked like he Lost a step here.

He missed a step into wolfy office to sign his contract offer..
