Pierce had 1000 yards this year
Thomas had 700
Hogan averaged 530 as a patriot
Patriots with hogan went to the SB 3 of 3 years and win 2.

Pierce >>>>> Thomas
Hogan might be > Thomas

Thomas showed production his rookie season... I'm of the opinion that He could thrive in this offense should we aquire him.. nonetheless I'm not opposed to pierce either..

IF he doesn't take a pay cut which I think he should: I'm ok with him leaving. Some of that $$$$$ could be used to Extend K Boutte.

I like Diggs but he's going to have to understand his situation.. age 33 and not getting younger... so if he doesn't play ball then we definitely need to be in on pierce..

Corpse Rodgers would probably want to come back just thinking about the possibilities of DK and Thomas Jr.

Brian Thomas Jr. is under contract with another team and was selected as the 23rd overall pick in the 2024. Alec Pierce is a free agent. This is actual football and not Madden. You can't force a team to trade with you just because you say so. The Jaguars are have said they are not looking to deal him. Just because the Stealers called about Thomas does not mean they are in trade discussions and the Pats could swoop in. It is ridiculous to give up on Thomas after one down season. He would require a king's ransom, and the Pats are not getting into a bidding war. This is all media hype. There is nothing to it.

All Alec Pierce requires is a contract and we don't lose any draft pics. If you sign him for $30 million avg and still draft at 31, you now have 2 starters for the price of Thomas.

Steelers Talking With Jaguars About WR Trade

PITTSBURGH -- When Pittsburgh Steelers general manager Omar Khan met with the media at the 2026 NFL Draft Combine, he made it clear that the moves they made in

Of course theyll start with asking for a first but eventually he’ll go for a 2nd. Id be interested if we can’t land pierce

Id be comfortable giving pierce 25 mil a year
Fit would be perfect with maye. If pats could convince diggs to restructure move him to the slot. Boutte Z # 2. Thats a nice trio with mack and Kyle getting reps too. Chism learning slot from diggs. Demario would be # 7 or the odd man out. All you really need at WR right there.

He's already their slot WR as he can't play the outside anymore.

In terms of asking for a pay cut, it's not going to happen. Diggs took a chance on coming to a 4-13 team and caught for 1,000 yards. While I don't like his cap number, this is what the Pats agreed to pay him in year 2. It would be a terrible look for the Pats to either ask for a pay cut or cut a guy when it's time to pay him after he put up a solid season statically one year removed from the ACL tear. The optics would not be good when recruiting other FA's.

Pats are going to have to pay him this season and look for his replacement for 2027 in the meantime.
