Emmanuel Sanders visting today

[everlong]

Given how badly the Patriots have drafted WRs and how bad the 3rd round has gone and given their success for the most part in projecting FAs and trading for WRs I'll take it. Worst case the Steelers are forces to match not wanting to lose Wallace and Sanders in the same season and you hurt their cap more. I bet the structure has more year one coin to force them out.

Lloyd, Amendola, Sanders, Jones is a pretty solid group of WR's. And we're terrible in the third round anyways.

I don't see Pats keeping Lloyd If Sanders signs.

 

[Ring 6]

If I remember correctly, Sanders was a good special teamer also. Quick as balls. Sign the beast.

Are balls quick?

 

[BadMoFo]

Not sure I want to see the Pats give up a draft pick to sign an RFA this year.

If they had more draft picks, sure, but with just 5?

I agree, but Sanders looks like he can be a star in the right system, he;s quick, fast and he's an excellent punt returner.

Buried behind wallace and brown, I like him. Id expect him to start for us if we gave up a pick.

Depends on the girl you're with.

 

[JackBauer]

I would be a big fan of this move.

 

[Brady2Moss]

Another short guy! Yay. Probably chew up a lot of our cap to get the steelers not to match. So dumb go get a defense.

Interesting how BB is addressing WR first. DE next? S?

The draft is heavy on DTs.......With VW getting up in years, is it time to spend some premium draft capital in the trenches?

 

[Fixit]

Are balls quick?

Depends on what they're rubbing up against.

Re: Steelers WR Emmanuel Sanders visiting Patriots today

WR Emmanuel Sanders is a tough WR who is already better than Lloyd. This kid have good upside and will only get better.

 

[patsinthesnow]

So were potentially looking at Sanders, Amendola, rookie, Jones as our WR core. Definitely a new look and more field stretching, hope it happens.

From what it sounds like, the Patriots can also work out a trade the way we did with Welker. It can be a draft pick for next year for all we know.

So now you've gone from whining about the Pats not making any moves, to whining about the moves they're making.

Good times.

5'11" and 4.41 speed..

 

[Tasco]

how much cap room do the steelers have atm? could be a nice evaluation of what we would have to offer to not make it matchable by them.

 

[Notorious]

Doesn't this guy have fumbling issues?

5 ' 11 isn't bad at all. Certanly has more height than welker.

The Steelers don't have a lot of cap space.. Kinda hard for them to match..
