If they want to use that as some kind of corporate logo, I suppose that’s ok. But that’s a hard pass on being the primary logo used on team gear. It looks hideous on the helmet and obviously would look terrible on the rest of the uniform as well.

Or could it just be that the Pats organization thinks Maye is the next franchise QB?

OR…the Pats brain trust feels Maye is the next franchise QB. You don’t trade out of the #3 spot if you see a franchise altering QB there. Time will tell…

If you think Maye is your next franchise QB, then you turn that deal down 10/10 times. The Pats obviously didn’t think that highly of McCarthy and quite frankly neither did Minnesota if they were willing to deal three #1s instead of drafting him. If this report is true, McCarthy was a very low...

Totally agree…there are many different opinions on this forum regarding how the draft went but the reality is that no one can give an objective assessment of this draft until the 2025 season is over. We have to give these guys a couple of years under their belt while they learn their craft at...

That grade was more guaranteed than the sun rising tomorrow :whistle:

Good point :thumbsup: Hopefully Okorafor or Wallace can turn out to be our LT for the next few years. I think Anderson is probably best suited to be our swing OT. Regardless of how LT plays out, I think we’ll be a much improved team this season. 8-10 wins is not too far fetched. As you said...

Well, unless there’s some crazy deal between now and camp (not gonna happen), our opening day LT will be one of Okorafor, Anderson or the rook. I’ll admit that I’m not jumping for joy over this scenario; however, let’s see how things go once they put the pads on.

We’ll bring in some more FAs to address positions not really addressed in the draft. I can definitely see us bringing in DBs and RBs. We’ll probably add some more TC competition at the LB position as well as both lines. We should also bring in a K to compete with Ryland if we haven’t added one...

You really believe that the last 2-3 drafts prior to this one were also Eliot Wolf drafts? So what was Bill doing in those off seasons?

I’ll give the draft a B+ for now as we addressed our most glaring needs on O and added a DB where we might be considered a little thin. Maybe we didn’t draft all the BPAs in each round according to nerdy mock drafts, but that’s why we have an actual scouting dept doing the real analysis and not...

I agree with everything you said except for the Zappe part. He’s not battling anyone for the QB1 spot. He’ll be fighting an uphill battle just to remain on the roster come TC. I think Zappe has a slim shot to stick if he balls out this summer, but he has ZERO shot at QB1. Right now I have him...

A couple of things… 1) What’s wrong with Wolf saying positive things about the team? Is he polishing a turd a little bit…probably…but he’s trying to bring some positive energy to the team. That’s needed after the last 4-5 seasons. 2) Did you see this FA class? It was one of the worst in recent...

Nah…Wickersham has a well established personal agenda against the Pats organization. The roots of his story probably hold some truth, but I have no doubt that he embellished the majority of the story to suit his agenda of painting Kraft in a bad light. I will say that RK makes himself an easy...

We’ll get a slight reprieve starting next Thursday as the focus will switch to the draft. That’ll last for 1-2 weeks and then the RK/BB media saga will continue. This season can’t come soon enough even though I know the Boston media already has their pitchforks sharpened and ready to stab if...
