DK Metcalf officially requests a trade (UPDATE: He's a Steeler)

[Boomer B]

We just need to introduce DK to Linda Holiday, so that he can experience the warmth of her ample bosoms.

I think if we introduce DK to a woman in her 60’s he’s running to the hills

Who's to be believed?

Could be that the Pats are trying to drop the price on these guys.

 

[bakes781]

Now that they need a QB perhaps Joe Milton sweetener to the deal for DK?

 

[Kdo5]

We are not getting him and I fear we will miss on both him and Godwin.

[slash83]

Of course they’re not, they’re stacked at the position.

 

[Kdo5]

So putting all our eggs in the Chris Godwin basket? Wolf and the Krafts better pull through and sign him.

I’m meh on Godwin

So: Boutte as WR1 again?

He’s an upgrade if healthy no doubt, but if he’s the big splash on offense then yeah I’m not gonna be overly excited about him an older WR coming off an injury.

 

[Love The Drake]

Nobody knows anything.

 

[Ras-IR Dowling]

Wouldn’t shock me if Milton is involved in a DK deal.

Some people are way overrating Milton being used as a trade asset.

Nobody on this board should complain if the Pats were to give up a 2nd round pick for Metcalf or another premier WR. The Pats have been historically dreadful drafting WR's and yet we're worried about draft capital?

When there are more holes to fill than just one WR slot, yes.

Yeah he should bring more than just DK

This guy Savage just regurgitates bs reports from non credible sources

It's DK + DK's Contract. Yeah, the Patriots can easily handle it, but that's hardly the point.

$28m in MA is taxed 5% but everything over $1m is taxed at 9% so it's close to $25m anyways.

Income tax in KC is 6% on all income, whereas MA is 5% on the first $1m and 9% on the rest. It's taken only on the games played at home (half the salary). If we were offering $28m, MA tax on $14m would be $1,240,000, and KC tax on $14m would be $840,000, so the diff is $600k.

If comparing to Baltimore, their tax is actually a little higher than MA when you include the local income tax. Mass tax even with the millionaire's tax is still middle of the pack and only significant when comparing to an income tax free state like FL.
