When’s the last time Bill has ever won a trade ?

Kyle van Noy.

Not sure the Patriots could get the Bucs' 14th overall pick for Gronk, but the Bucs have 45 and 76, and the Pats should go for one of them.

I would do a one on one for Howard. I'd also take their 2nd or 3rd round pick

Edelman?? No.

EDIT: Unless you're a Bucs fan

Edelman is 34 years old. Most slot receivers aren't great without Brady. Trade a retired Gronk + Edelman for a young promising TE in Howard

Gronk and a 7 for their 4th. Done deal per Schefter.

Trade, pending physical: Patriots are trading TE Rob Gronkowski and a seventh-round pick to the Buccaneers for a fourth-round pick, source tells ESPN.

Is it safe to call Tampa "New England South"?

 

[cupofjoe1962]

gronk & a 7th round pick for a 4th from Tampa.

Per Adam Schefter on ESPN.

Schefter 4th rounder? LOL BB gave Jimmy away for a 2nd

 

[Nunchucks]

I was worried it would be a 4th round pick. Hope they can turn that into a player who can take some snaps.

 

[Sully]

Only a Fourth? Cmon Bill get us OJ at the very least.

 

[PatsBoy12]

Not that I'm doubting you, but a link would be cool.

If Sanu is worth a 2nd round pick, then Gronk is worth a 2nd round pick.

Wasn't he offered to Detroit for a 4th?

Gronk is a bit of damaged goods at this point.

His value is not what anyone imagines.

Personally, I'd also be in favor of trading Thuney, Gilmore and Edelman just to start building back up with young guys.

Anything the Patriots were going to get for Rob Gronkowski was gravy. He's retired, and the Patriots couldn't afford him.

Wish Howard would’ve been involved in the deal. Glad to see this drama get wrapped up. 4th rounder is better than nothing. Has it been confirmed it’s for this year?
