Patriots Player Departure Pats trade Garrett Bradbury to the Bears for a 2027 5th

patsinthesnow · Mar 6, 2026

60M+ cap space & a boatload of picks. Big changes are coming on offense.

A.C Vegas · Mar 6, 2026

I am surprised that they got anything for him. Wilson has to be moving to center

TheRainMaker · Mar 6, 2026

They are going after Lindenbaum unless he foolishly re-signs with Baltimore.

Nah i think Wilson is gonna move to C and they're gonna get a better LG to help Campbell.

Not a bad return for a guy we (the fans) wanted to replace

Pat the Pats Fan · Mar 6, 2026

Wilson to center, new guard coming

Nunchucks · Mar 6, 2026

This is pretty good news.

Wilson doesn't even belong on the field.

Sure hope so.

I have total faith in Vrabel and Co., they know what they are doing. They wouldn't have moved on from Bradbury unless they knew they could improve the position. They aren't in the business of creating holes they can't fill.

He's need to improve at run-blocking for sure. He's only 22 yo.

He should be a pretty good center. He was overmatched at guard

They aren't going to give up on him before they see him playing his natural position, he's a center.

He's going to get a chance to win the job

It’ll be interesting to see what route they take…

1. Will they fill the C position by moving Wilson there and then go after a LG in the draft/FA

2. Will they keep Wilson at LG and then go after Lindenbaum (spelling?) in FA

3. Will they upgrade both the LG and C positions via the draft/FA and kick Wilson to the bench

My gut tells me #1 but let’s see

That's a pretty good return considering we did not spend anything

This could signal a signing like McGovern, who they could start at LG, but would be able to move to center if Wilson faltered. Then they would draft a guard for depth and competition,

The Bears are pretty familiar with Bradbury after playing against him for several years.

I like this. You would weaken the bills but at same time have a fallback option for center and build contingency . I hope wilson pans out as a center.

PATSYLICIOUS · Mar 6, 2026

Pretty damn good for someone they scooped up for free last year. Got a decent year out of him and a 5th. These are the low key moves the great fo’s make and finds like tonga.

I also think wilson is moving to c and hope we are going after one of the top LG on the market.
