Bullcrap. Trent Brown Says He's Having Fun.

[RayClay]

“But another thing that popped into my mind was all the bullcrap that people say about this place. I’ve always been a man that forms my own opinions, and when I got here, I quickly found out that it’s nothing like anybody says.

“It is fun here. I think the guys in the locker room enjoy each other. Everybody in the facility enjoys each other, and we go out there and play for each other every time we touch the field. There’s no selfishness in the locker room. There’s no egos. It’s just one. … It has to contribute a lot (to the team’s success).”

I for one am glad that they enjoy each other.

I know (unproven) Wynn will return but I wonder if we will be able to retain Brown after this season.

Trent's a man of few words, but many pounds.

I saw Dante chase him down for a hug after a recent win. He seems like a funny kind of shy guy. Maybe he really is having the time of his life. He'll get a big contract somewhere, but I insist players weigh heavily their quality of life, and fun, too

It would be great to keep Thuney as well. He has only one more year on his contract - UFA in 2020.

Seems like they'll have 6 quality starters and need to makea move, but I think Cannon is older than listed age with all his injuries. Nice problem to have.

What we need are guys for whom performing at their best IS fun. That's one of the secrets to many of the most elite players, or elite people in any given field.

Well, I guess it depends if there’s a team out there with a horrible offensive line and a lot of cap space who-
Oh crap. He’s totally going to be a Jet next year.

Brown ask easily exceeded my expectations. In fact, he’s done so well, I think he’s outpriced NE. I hope Wynn returns and plays well.

I hope we can keep Brown around ...
I love old school football and there's not much of it in the NFL these days.
Brown - Thuney ... Gronk - Develin blocking together ...
That is old school football porn ... I love it.

I enjoy you, Mr. Patjew.
I'd like to think many of us on this board enjoy each other.

Just because we're holding hands doesn't mean we'll be taking warm showers together until the wee hours of the morning.

You know how many times I have been within a nanosecond of having this slip out of my mouth in a work meeting? Me either, but quite a few.

Hey if he is a funny shy kind of guy who is having the time of his life here, he might be a good prospect for a reasonable contract if it was structured with lots of downside protection for him as well as the team. Like for example, four or five years, fully guaranteed against injury, skill guarantees for at least a couple or three years. If it’s fairly close to market a deal like that where there’s no downside risk to his financial stability might be enough to merit a home team discount. Let’s hope so anyway.

Yep, definitely not closing the door on a Brown return. At least not yet. While I think he’ll see a reasonable yearly figure, I’m not as sure that it will be a long term deal.
