Another thoroughly ok move.
The 1 year deal is interesting. Either the team thinks it's taking a flyer on a likely jag, or the player is betting on himself to produce big on a crappy offense.
Either way, this will be a much less embarrassing 5 win team in 2024.
A trade down seems like a given at this point. I was thinking Nix would be the target, but you bring up an interesting point about setting the stage for a lefty QB.
Maybe the plan is Penix at 11, a WR at 23, and RT at 34.
Receiving back, runs a 4.39 40, played WR in college, good in blitz pickup. Great move. Not a game changer, but if the goal is to build a functional offense for a young QB to grow into, it helps.
The proposed trade is not balanced. It skews in NYGs favor.
The precedent fro moving from 6 to 3 is two 2nds and a 2nd next year. That's what Indy got in the Sam Darnold trade in 2018.
Correct, you got a shot at your guy, you take them.
Daniel's lack of bulk doesn't bother me as much as his tendency to take sacks. Also, I'm less impressed when a 24 year old is dominating 20 year old competition. The reason he looked like a man among boys was because he was. I'm not convinced...
The question is, do you want a top 15 QB or a championship level QB. Cousins, Mayfield, Fields and Wilson theoretically could put up top 15 numbers, but they're not going to get you more than one playoff win in any year. The draft is the only way, at least this off season, to get a shot at a guy...
We're going to pay the suck tax hard when it comes to luring WRs - especially now that Higgins and Pittman are off the table. Ridley becomes a much hotter commodity.
I don't see anything too exciting. Maybe we overpay Mooney to come here. After that, expect some Wolf reclamation projects -...
I don't like Flacco at all. Our mission for 2024 should be one thing - build a functional offensive system and hand over the keys come week 17. Five games is a Tommy DeVito sized sample size. I don't think Flacco is good enough over the course of a year to allow a functional system to coalesce...
There will likely be starting LT talent available at #34. I hope we sign Owenu, and see us taking a shot with a Mecca Beckton type. Otherwise, I see the draft as the ticket to a passable professional line.
Vinatieri is a no brainer for Canton...eventually. I don't see any kicker getting in on their first year. The voters will make him wait a few and take advantage of a weaker class to enshrine some of their backlogs at other positions.
The only 1st ballot I see here is Kuechly, and his closest...
This is mindset that needs to go into any trade scenario.
I want the Patriots to take the guy they feel is the best QB to lead a champion. And, if a team has the capital to get their guy, you go out and get their guy, If that guy is Williams, offer Chicago three 1sts and see if they bite. If...
My nightmare is trading down to 11-13 with hopes of getting McCarthy at a value spot, having another team jump up for him, and having to settle to Latham and Nix.
I'm not sure a 31 year old owed $16 million, and coming off of a season ending injury has a ton of value. Plus, he is exactly the type of guy you want to keep around for a rebuild.
