Maybe because it sounds less silly than being a wagon?Why do some ppl here refer to players as a BEAST? Wasn't that term so 2010?

Srsly how can both him and Keene fail so badly. Harry is one thing but both TE’s drafted relatively high and in the same year? I do think Asiasi is a player…he’s got to step up in 2022.There's a better chance that he retires than he comes back here. We also have more pressing needs than tight end at this point. My binkie Asiasi is going to have a breakout year in 2022!!!! woooooooooooohhhhhhoooooo
1. Gronkowski hates Belichick.
2. Gronkowski will remain loyal to Brady, so it's either SF or retirement.
3. Belichick whiffed on TWO 3rd round TE's in the same draft... amazing.
4. The 2020 draft was an abject failure.
5. The Patriots selected 29 players in the '18, '19 & '20 drafts... I'll be generous here... 3 are good.
6. Belichick hasn't drafted an NFL caliber WR or TE since 2010.
If Brady stayed they couldn’t have afforded to sign gronk unless they cut more players after cutting the ones necessary to be under the cap with Brady.I think Gronk would have returned if Bill would have him and Brady stayed in NE, but I think he was happier to go to Tampa. All that said, he isn’t returning here.
Take your antidepressants.1. Gronkowski hates Belichick.

Even without Brady they couldn’t afford Gronk, that’s how he leveraged them into trading him to Tampa.If Brady stayed they couldn’t have afforded to sign gronk unless they cut more players after cutting the ones necessary to be under the cap with Brady.
How did Asiasi and Keene fail? In 2020 they were rookies, rookie TE’s are notorious for doing nothing in year one, it’s one of the toughest positions to make the college to pro leap and Cam Newton was an abomination.Srsly how can both him and Keene fail so badly.

San Francisco and Edelman is going there too.Gronk is going to wherever Brady goes to as he should because he hated playing here by the end.
Yeah I’m not so sure Bill would have been willing to pay Gronk after a mostly not great 2018. Granted he turned back the clock big time in the playoffs.If Brady stayed they couldn’t have afforded to sign gronk unless they cut more players after cutting the ones necessary to be under the cap with Brady.
I'm still upset with Gronk. He left the Pats hanging with the way he left.There's a better chance that he retires than he comes back here. We also have more pressing needs than tight end at this point. My binkie Asiasi is going to have a breakout year in 2022!!!! woooooooooooohhhhhhoooooo
Where are these “all accounts”?Gronk is not coming back to play for Bill. Ever.
By all accounts Brady pissed off little Shanny while going over plays saying he would have changed a bunch of what they did in 28-3. First it shows Kyle's an idiot. You should be open to learning from your mistakes especially when it's one of the great offensive minds talking to you not some mediot like Felger just stirring the pot. Second Shanny is going to be more inflexable than BB or Ariens with his offense. Good luck putting your 45 year old QB in the pistol or running RPOs.
Maybe Lynch and York can talk them into putting up with each other for a year. Maybe they can do it inspite of the egos. If they can that team is loaded. They probably beat the Rams with somebody like Derek Carr, Kirk Cousins or Mac Jones never mind the Goat. And yes the Rams beat the Bucs but that offense was more like the 09 Patrtios with just Moss and Welker with having Evans, an older Gronk and Fournette coming off of injury and their OL was a mess. And they still almost pulled it off if Bowles wasn't such an idiot playing cover zero in that situation.
The first one I heard it on was a national podcast. I can't remember which one as I usually have them on in the background as I'm working. The second one I think was Zo/Bertrand but it could have been Murray/Gasper as well. To your point who knows if it's completely credable. But it would make sense why you would roll with JG over TB and I've always believed JG was the MFer TB was speaking about.Where are these “all accounts”?

I feel like neither has produced very much on the field.How did Asiasi and Keene fail? In 2020 they were rookies, rookie TE’s are notorious for doing nothing in year one, it’s one of the toughest positions to make the college to pro leap and Cam Newton was an abomination.
In year two they had Henry and Smith, one of the best TE duos in the league. Asiasi was never going to play and Keene was given the Foxboro flu. We’ll see what they can do going forward, but they hardly failed.
This is one of your worst takes ever.How did Asiasi and Keene fail? In 2020 they were rookies, rookie TE’s are notorious for doing nothing in year one, it’s one of the toughest positions to make the college to pro leap and Cam Newton was an abomination.

What's your point? If his age was such a liability then it's just another reason why the pick sucked. According to you the team is all set at TE with Henry and Smith so Asiasi and Keene will remain irrelevant anyway.and again Asiasi and Keene are on the team. Keene entered the NFL at 21 years old, he was barely old enough to drink a beer… good grief.
Mitchell didn't make it past one year in the NFL, which was no surprise at all given his extensive injury history heading into the '16 draft. In the end the draft pick clearly didn't work out. Belichick's history of drafting WR's is undeniably bad.BB hasn’t drafted an NFL WR since whatever but UDFA Meyers is good and Gunner an All Pro return man. Malcolm Mitchell was good, too bad his knee gave out. They mostly don’t draft WR’s…
I said the '20 draft was an abject failure. I didn't say the '21 season was an abject failure. The playoff appearance that you're so high on was an abject failure though.The whining hyperbole is at an all time high since Brady left. I suspect if you were a Lions fan you’d have already gone on a gun toting rampage by this point, meanwhile for us a playoff appearance is an abject failure.
There's little doubt these drafts have yielded measly returns.2020 was an abject failure… except for Duggar, Onwenu, Asiasi (who was on the team this year) and Herron. Uche was hurt most of the year, some would say Keene and Jennings were given the Foxboro flu. JJ Taylor is on the team.
