Chandler Jones Traded

[fnordcircle]

Man this offseason is so boring wake me up when the Pats are as good at it as the Dolphins.

one of those moves that just had to happen.

Chandler, when he showed up was a beast. the issue was he didn't show up very often, and was a liability in the run game.

Good to see we got some decent value out of him.


Really a win win for two contenders. Jones goes to a team on the rise, and the patriots get to keep their window open a little longer.

Chris Long has to be the signing now.

 

[Horace's Ivories]

works for me

 

[ErniesPinkStripes]

No way BB would tolerate that crap of getting high as F in a playoff week, thanks Jones for your services but go vanish after week 8 somewhere else.

2 second round picks, I like BB chances of getting some talent or moving up in the draft with those.

That's the first thing that came to mind for me as well..

I AM ****ING LIVID

WHAT THE HELL

A CENTER!?

A guard. They were considering moving him to center this year. His contract is also up at the end of the year (5th year option wasn't exercised), so he'll be a free agent next year.

I'm a bit surprised. Would have thought Jones for another year was happening.

Wish that 2nd was a bit higher, but if the player fits, it might be ok.

Trade that 2nd round pick for gordon

Chris Long and Percy Harvin and im dancing in the streets.

 

[primetime]

Wow, I didn't think they'd get a 2nd round pick for him, let alone Cooper. He's had some injury issues since he was drafted and is immensely talented. Hopefully Scar can turn him into a stud. Either way, the 2nd rounder is very nice. Assuming they bring in Chris Long now.

Loved Chandler Jones but this was an obvious move, and a good one!

Ditto. Jones was a very good player and a good guy.( one little blip for which you could tell he felt very badly about).Collins hightower butler are all more important. But now we need grissom flowers to step up. Nink is getting old and I like shears but not surehow he'll hold up if he's on for 90% if snaps

 

[Banjo]

Not Chandler Jones! What?! d%#*!@t Bill!!

Back to the days of mediocre pass rush I guess

Trade that 2nd round pick for gordon

Trade that 2nd round pick for gordon

Dear God if you see fit lol Would certainly be interesting.

cooper was the 7th over all pick for the cards back in 2013 so he has not lived up to the hype but should still be a upgrade for the pats, not happy about lossing the top pass rusher but its not like a seymore type trade the pats still have a few good pass rushers on the team hope they get one of the top RB's with that draft pick

 

[Double TE]

So essentially we traded a 1st rounder for a 2nd rounder? I don't get it?

 

[IcyPatriot]

Cooper came out of college as excelling in zone blocking ... which is our system.

 

[PatsFan2]

We couldnt get one of Arizonas receivers?

BB just keeps punishing me a Team loaded with WR and we couldn't even fetch John Brown.

Arizona had been seeking a pass rusher - gets a stud in Chandler Jones. NE coveted Jonathan Cooper and picks. Get them.


Picks? 2nd + something?

 

[jboston19]

I really like the move. Picking up a solid pick and a tempting reclamation project is great. I am most encouraged by more money being available to extend Hightower, Butler, and Collins now.

I assume it's a 2016 pick?
