PATRIOTS TRAINING CAMP 2026 Patriots Training Camp - Day 12

[Ring 6]

Both players were/are in year 4 of their rookie contracts.
Both players want/wanted more money.

Boutte isnt holding out because that would only diminsh his value in a trade.
Branch did not have that issue.

Every player wants more money.

Boutte either doesn’t have trade value or the patriots have no interest in trading him, or both.

These players are not at all comparable, and you know that.

 

[Ring 6]

Become a distraction to force his way out of town.

He hasn’t done that.
Doing that would do him no good.

You think that the best thing for his career is to publicly become a malcontent so that other teams will think less of him so that he can be traded to any random team 99% likely to have a worse QB that he won’t have a bond with so he can sit on the bench there, or produce less there than he will here and that will be good for his career?

I know you don’t understand how jobs work but that would be stupid.

No you just posted a stupid explanation that is wrong.

Youre just to ignorant to understand.

Boutte is playing nice because the Pats have promised to trade him.

 

[Triumph]

You have stated this multiple times.
So when will he become a distraction?

When he is not traded.

Don’t you think that would have already happened 2 weeks into camp?

No, because a training camp highlight reel gets Boutte out faster. Being a good soldier does as well.

Refusing to practice only prolongs his wanting out because teams will just wait until he is cut and pay no draft compensation.

You can keep saying he will become a distraction, and I will keep pointing out he has done nothing but show up when mandatory and work his ass off.
A guy who isn’t willing to work doesn’t lay out for catches multiple times in practice.

His new team will like those videos and up the money.

Yeah you say the guy who isn’t holding out and is doing everything he needs to his going to suddenly his behavior when there is no incentive to, and I’m ignorant. Stop drinking.

There is an entire world going on inside your mind isn’t there. Sadly you cant tell the difference between that and reality.

1) if he is going to become a distraction why hasn’t he
2) if he is going to hold out why hasn’t he
3) if the patriots are going to trade him why haven’t they?
4) if they promised to trade him why is he running with the 1s? Do they not care about getting ready for the season?

Now add a few gallons of moonshine and that explains it

When he is not traded.

Now you’re making my argument for me.
So according to you he will become a distraction when he is not traded.
Has he been traded yet?
Has he become a distraction?
No.
He’s had all off-season and 2 weeks of camp to become a distraction. He’s still here, so again, according to you he will be a distraction when not traded, so technically he should’ve been a distraction all the way back to the draft.
You’re making assumptions that have in no way taken shape to date.

Teams would rather have guy who was over 30 years old, never has played on a team for more than 2 years, going on his 6th team in 8 years than two young WR’s they just drafted in the 2nd and 4th rounds one year ago. That is beyond stupid.

Tell me you didn't actually WATCH the games last year without telling me you didn't watch the games last year.

But clearly, you're more knowledgeable than Vrable and his staff. They ought to fire him and bring in you.
