    PATRIOTS NEWS Breer reports Pats are seeing Maye's progress

    Few comments from the last few pages regarding sacks, Burrow, qb play etc that @Wozzy @KCSVEN have been going at it over. I've said this for a while now but it makes sense. I think it could be expanded on or worded better bc I'm not particularly articulate but playing QB is a lot like a...

    OT: Justin Jefferson signs a team friendly deal for $35 million a year

    The gap between Mahomes and Allen, Jackson etc is that large. Like Brady, Mahomes changes what you can get away with. Also Kelce is a HOF player that can't be excluded when doing the "what each QB brings to the table" arguments. That WR/TE Corp could be great with a healthy Collins. If AR5...

    OT: Justin Jefferson signs a team friendly deal for $35 million a year

    I remember getting A LOT of pushback for wanting to pay Higgins and Aiyuk 20+ per year just months ago. Have to keep up with the times. WR is the second most important position in football

    DRAFT 2024 2nd Round Pick - WR Ja'Lynn Polk

    "Leading up to the 2019 NFL Draft, the 49ers were fans of N’Keal Harry and supposedly liked him more than Deebo Samuel before New England selected Harry in the first round. Both John Lynch and Adam Peters were at Arizona State’s Pro Day." Lynch talking about Aiyuk. "We started noticing him...

    PATRIOTS NEWS Breer reports Pats are seeing Maye's progress

    I miss like everyone else (less than most :) but had Mac nailed down from day 1. He was an easy eval. I got killed by certain posters, not just DKF. Over this, his processing and a few other things. He didn't deal with pressure a lot un school, he had an outstanding OL. It was hard for some to...

    Nice bit from Nagy on Patriots WRs Polk & Baker

    Agreed I want to give Thornton one more shot at being relevant. We invested a top 50 pick in him. Hoping he would turn into a "speed" X in mold of guys like Hill, Waddle etc He's got 2/3 things that are valuable. He doesnt always utilize it but hes got real NFL speed, had success against press...

    DRAFT 2024 2nd Round Pick - WR Ja'Lynn Polk

    We need to let Harry go. Players like him succeed a lot, just not him. Harry was a big time recruit who put up almost 60 rec/700 5td as a true FO and had 2 1k seasons / 17 TD after that. Had a very nice combine at 6'2/228 - 4.54, 27 reps, 38.5 vert, 10.2 jump. The dots were there as a...

    Nice bit from Nagy on Patriots WRs Polk & Baker

    I'm a big believer in each of them and think both will be successful. Polk is a classic NEP Z/Slot imo but will thrive AVP system. The pats z/slot duties/traits overlap some. We look for similar players and traits there. Polk played a good deal outside, more than in the slot but was asked to...

    Would you trade 2025 1st for Lamb?

    Established, proven player that would immediately makes us better vs a cheap rookie at a premium position. If we woke up with Lamb + a new 7contract tomorrow I wouldn't be upset. If Baker/Polk hit, we would have sweet group when you include Pop. I wouldn't be mad at all if by chance we landed...

    This makes me feel good

    He's still a baby. Give him a year or two in one of the better strength programs in the league and he'll be rocked up. Little bit of a side note but he's a tough sob that looks like a preppy kid. He took some absolute shots running the ball and just got back up like nothing happened. He's a...

    Do any of these five deserve to get into the Pats Hall of Fame?

    Parcells and Randy stick out bc of what they did while here. Not here for long but Randy had like 50 TD in 3 years, huge reason for 16-0 and was one of the very few players who actually made Brady a better QB. Obviously Parcells made a big impact in a short time. We legitimately should put...

    BGC 2024 WR/PTP Thread

    Found two wrs who couldn't be a more perfect fit more Maye and complementary to Baker and Polk. Both could be true wr1 even though I'm praying Baker takes that mantle. These two are just too good to pass up if they simply maintain current productivity and stay healthy. I'm all about give Maye as...

    Breakdown of Mayes throwing hitch.

    I've been talking about this for a while and I think the footwork is more important or a bigger deal. There's such a ripple effect from it. There's a few things that stick out. A)very bouncy at times. this hurts bc you want to throw from your feet up. you want to firmly planted when you fire...

    Ot: Bruins

    This. And people don't respect Florida enough. They're a good ****in team from top to bottom. Certainly beatable but they're who Bruins fans think our team is. I'm not a hockey expert but we need serious help on D. Specifically on the blue line, offensive end. We have guys that can move but...

    Maye hits crossbar with 83 yard throw

    I'll never forget this. This was peak draft hype

    DRAFT 2024 NEP 3RD Overall Pick - DRAKE MAYE

    I didn't see the post on Mahomes but he didn't have "bad" footwork at all imo. Very unconventional, at times a little sloppy but it wasn't bad. I don't think Maye's is really bad but it's worse than Mahomes imo. 15 was unorthodox and did a lot of things you didn't see. Maye has a lot of...

    BGC 2024 WR/PTP Thread

    Rough year but yes eventually. 5/8

    DRAFT 2024 NEP 3RD Overall Pick - DRAKE MAYE

    If Maye cleans up his footwork I believe that'll lead to an improvement in several key areas. And not just improve the obvious there. General accuracy/more velocity, pocket management, overall mechanics that marry together. Just make life a lot easier on himself snap to snap in terms of...

    DRAFT 2024 NEP 6th Round Pick - Joe Milton

    That offense was more than friendly enough to Richardson. Besides strength and velocity he's got very limited arm talent. With respect anyone that's watched these guys tape understands why this is kind of a lazy comp besides the obvious. Milton has a stronger arm but doesn't have the touch or...

    DRAFT 2024 7th Round Pick - TE Jaheim Bell

    That definitely could be one of his duties, eventually. Blocking is enormous for the TE position bc it determines usage. If he can handle himself in space when it comes to that. I think the idea is to have him as flex/move te. Again with 3rd down being highlighted as a real possibility bc of his...
