. Couldn't find change?

Thats some nasty piece of sarcasm there Ross. Congrats! Perfectly normal and expected numbers (when broken down & considering cap raise) for top OL FA. Theres a direct link between OL spenders and January teams .. but yeah, why pay for OL if it worked so great with scraps lately..

Thank you for the greatest ride, coach. Thank you for the front row seat into the depths and the beauty of the game. Hope to see you coach again.

In almost 30 years that he acted as de facto GM (incl CLE) Bill never had an opportunity to pick in the top 5. He never gave himself that opportunity with his continuous, relentless success. He loved those players, worked them out, craved to coach them, sometimes signed them much further down...

In a series of bad decisions by everyone @ Patriots over the last 3 years this is the worst and most cynical. Patriots are officially becoming just another team with all the good and the bad that comes with it.

1. Pats should be forbidden to draft WR. 2. Without OL WRs (QBs) dont matter. Pats fans had every opportunity to learn this lesson the hard way this season. In case you're wondering - this is the OT market in 2024. After franchise tags what remains is ultra expensive wasteland: (+ Onwenu who is...

Spoiler alert: Bill stays and trades down.

Exactly. Even if it was coming this is as bad as it gets. Getting rid of one of the few corners in the league that can actually cover for zero compensation in November is just another example of malpractice. Id love to see Bill coaching here as long as he wants it . but managing the roster...

Agreed. Worse rosters not to mention organizations turned it around quickly before on less capital. Pats had every opportunity to make a solid team this year but bad OL/O decisions predictably took much of the toll. Id argue part of the injury situation comes also from bad roster management...

This move completes the great OL checkers strategy BB employed for this season: 1. Instead of signing an actual NFL starter at void & critical tackle position (with 5-6 options available) 2. He decided to sign 3 backups - for combined higher 2023 cap hit ! (2b. And trade for additional 2 OTs...

who wouldve thought moving Onwenu to RT could make a difference

Funny. I was told by BB for two years he prefers keeping Onwenu at RG over fielding a competent line??

touche

Why not . he possessed the most important quality - he never played for NE before..

poor tommy, must be painful being always in the room and never have a clue
