Definitely Andrews, but Karras wouldn't be a bad plan B since we know him already. I'd want a draftee in the mid rounds though in that case, to learn behind him and take over when ready.

But man, do NE and Miami have a C share program going on or something?

I can't get those lob balls out of my head. I know he improved as the year went on. But it's like seeing a hot chick pick her nose and eat it. No way after that.

One of our worst mistakes in the draft was picking Harry over dk metcalf

In the first round, Seattle passed on him as did all the NFL clubs.

Is Bill done adding receivers? We still need a WR1

 

[luuked]

A bit of a shock but Harry may not be a good fit for the Patriots and teams know that. He could be a much better fit for one of those "3 teams".

The Cards really loved him reportedly.

 

[mgteich]

If they want into the #7 slot there will be no way to avoid putting future picks into that package. Not sure getting rid of Gilmore for that purpose is worth it.

patriots #1 and #2 picks total 1490 points
the #7 totals 1500

So, our first two picks plus a later swap of places might do it.

I really like the idea of Harry for Isabella. I think that would be good for everyone involved.

 

[mgcolby]

Same here. Either they've got more moves there coming in the later days of bargain free agency, or they are higher on Bentley and Hall than we are. Also possible that Winovich plays more inside if Uche and Judon take over the regular edge snaps, but I'm not sure that's his best role. He played more there last year than his rookie year, but out of necessity I feel.

How is this draft for ILB? Could be they have some targets there too.

I don't doubt this. I could see BB trying to redo a Bruschi scenario with him.

Interesting - is Cam that highly regarded in the NFL as a capable QB still? Or is something in the works...

All I can say is that everybody seems to love Cam.

 

[Lansdowne]

Can we stop quoting unverified randos from Twitter who throw a bunch of crap on the wall hoping something sticks? And stick to actual members of the media instead? Just a little tired of seeing people take the bait from make-pretend Twitter accounts. Please and thanks.

On-topic: Karras is okay but I really hope the Pats re-sign Andrews instead.

 

[yukon cornelius]

Ok thats a decent bullpen but not with Trask

Mills over trask or jones

Yeah, I'm getting tired of all the Fin-cest.

Posters: no receiver would sign with the patriots if they have other choices, with Cam being signed
Players: 2 WR's and 2 top 2 TE's sign with the patriots

Money talks.

I don't get the Cam love, but I also can't see how people figured no one would want to sign here—after all, this cap crunch is a "land of the blind" situation and the Patriots are the one-eyed man.

We don't need a "WR1"

Henry and Smith will be as effective as a Randy Moss type, just in an entirely different way. Same way Gronk and Hernandez were dominant with a good slot receiver.

 

[stelfans]

Money definitely talks but people really really overlook the fact that Cam is widely loved by NFL players.
I dont see how Cam+another big time QB would work. A rookie on the other hand is a dream scenario.

We shall see.

 

[Deus Irae]

So what's the next move for Bill Belichick and his New England Jets?

You figure Hunter Henry chose the corpse of Cam Newton over playing with Herbert, and that's why he'll be playing for New England?
