Well, it seems people are in two camps.............

1.) One camp says "screw 'em"....you want to leave? I hope you suck

2.) The other camp hopes to see two Patriot legends have continued success even beyond the Pats.

I'm in camp 2, but my wife and daughter are in camp 1, so it's crazy even in my own household.

I think he'll be released.

Read not a done deal and then I saw his follow up tweet. A 4th... wow.

Yeah, he was desperate. He knew he probably only had one more year of the greatest QB in NFL history and had just lost his plan A, B, C, D and E (Gronk, J Gordon, A Brown, N Harry, D Thomas) at 2nd receiver option. Plus Sanu wasn't a one-year rental. It was a bad trade, but it's defensible.

I'm really interested to see if he's getting that full $10 million from the Bucs. That seems excessive for anything other than prime Gronk.

I don't get all this Howard love. He looks decent, but 3TDs per season and 450 yds i would rather have a 3rd.

I liked the trade. He wasn't coming back to play for us. I hope they find another gem and put the disnaty back on track.

Considering the lack of TE talent in the draft, I would have loved to have gotten Howard.

I can’t handle another year of Lacosse & Izzo.

At this point all I know is we need to draft better.

Who?

My official position is now that Kraft chose the wrong guy to keep.

A decade of Bill
Or
Aging 2 yd pass specialist + brittle checked out Curly Q

A 4th isn’t a bad return. We got a fourth for nothing, I’ll take it.

n/a

Guess a merge of threads is imminent. It's actually taking longer than the news breaking. Lol

I wouldn't be surprised if Gronk and Brady had a reunion planned all along...

I had the same question.

Gronk was retired and only would come back to play for the Bucs. with TB12.

FIFY

Hoping the year off did him some good. He was solid in 2018 but wasn’t his dominant self.

They said gronk would never come back. Thatd what the radio heads keep saying.

I'm sure the year off did him wonders but I dont think anyone can deny he just sidnt wanna do another year with bill.

In other words, gronk was not going to come out of retirement to play this year for the patriots even if brady was here.

So while I'm sour on that selfishness I do appreciate the 4th round pick for a guy who was never gonna play for his again

When is Edelman getting traded?

Don't worry its coming

No one knows if the NFL will even play this year so it's a good deal if rebuilding for 2021 is the goal.

A 4th is nowhere close to nothing.
