Stefon Diggs to wear #8 for Patriots

Status
Not open for further replies.
Had more TDs in 5 games than the entire patiorts WR Corp. Last season.
Diggs workload is around 150 targets.

Pop and Henry are around 100 targets each. 350 targets estimated for those 3 guys alone. All 3 catch the ball above 66%.

All 2024 NE receivers combined had 500 targets.

Good stats. The offense and you can even hear it in the players when they speak on patriots platform networks. They are rejuvenated to have Josh as OC. The offense will be structured, sound, fluent and sustainable. We have not had a top 10 offense sense 2021.

The last 150 target WR was Edelman.

Meyers had 126 targets with Corky Jones in his rookie season vs a lot of pitiful teams.

Very true. And we faced alot of back up QBs.. I just get such a better sense that we will be playing some good ball this season.

We are going to be a tough out each and every week.
 
Bourne is draft Day trade piece. Maybe we eat 2 million of his salary to move up to 3rd from 5th

Nobody wants him he'll be released. IF Polk or Baker can't beat that bum out: they'll be released too.

I am just hoping somebody wants him at 3 million and would prefer to trade and get him as opposed to bidding for his services with other teams . So that's why I said if we eat 2 million of his contract we might get a slight move up from 5th to 3rd .

Straight away trade is not happening. I also get that . Likeliest outcome is a cut . Don't see Bourne on this team.

Got to think they'll bring in a Rookie or two from this Draft.
 
Bruh...nobody wants Kendrick Bourne for real draft capital.
It's going to come down to a numbers game. I'm starting to feel more and more like KB will get moved.. 5th or 6th rounder?

I would be absolutely stunned if any team gives up any draft capital for a guy they can sign to a vet minimum contract.

Interesting thing is Milton, Godchaux were all traded for some type of capital.. but I do see your point.

One's a QB. The other is a veteran DT who is just barely 30 on a pretty cheap contract.
Bourne is on a cheap contract for a WR taking them all into account, but he's over 30, and coming off a 40 catch year on a bad team. Sometimes, yes, players are better the 2nd year off a knee injury. Sometimes they just don't come back at all. Just because Kendrick Bourne had a good season 3 years ago, doesn't mean he's still that same guy now...and since draft picks are for much younger players - you're not using one, unless you're sure that guy can play for you right now. (Or is a QB)

In looking at projection.. Boutte and pop are younger guys and growing still as players.. I believe the team looks at that. Also the development of polk and baker as well.. just feels like KB will probably be the veteran that is on the outside.
 
It's a numbers game twin.. Diggs, pop, Boutte, right now I'd say are at the top of the depth chart.
Imagine Diggs - Hunter - Pop and Boutte or Diggs - King Tet - Pop and Boutte. What a far cry from last year's WR Room.

Interesting. Well that's true KBs age does play a huge factor in things. Come camp this season their projects to be some serious competition because Boutte I'd say who's comparable to KB as a skill set is a growing player and still very young who can thrive under Josh. I think Vrabel sees this.

King TET.. you getting me all excited twin!!
