Patriots Rumor Isaiah Likely - Future Patriot?

[PatsFan2]

Strong no to Pitts from me. He will tease with potential, but he is soft through and through.

OL is a different story. Tyler Linderbaum would be #1 on ny list, though I think his chance of hitting FA would be astronomically lower than Likely.

Braden Smith would be a fine upgrade over Morgan Moses if the Colts ley him reach FA, and his loss would hurt a rival. But Morgan has been reasonably solid, and probably gas a year left. The 2026 draft gas a lit of good RT prospects who could start by 2027.

Wyatt Telker will he 32 and is on the downside of a fine career. He could vs good short-term upgrade if the price is right.

Isn't Drake Maye making people better?? I'm not opposed to Kyle Pitts: we need to get younger there.

 

[PatsFan2]

Here's what I'll say.. both players are good and have potential to be even better.. FA 2026 I'm sure Vrabel contacts them both expressing interest.

Agreed on the everything else you posted.

You have to wonder if Atlanta is using Kyle Pitts right: and they have had their issues @ QB. I think McDaniels and Drake Maye could Unlock him: I think we are a match.

I just don't want to take a risk on a first-round bust that's going to cost a lot of money.

I wouldn't break the bank for him: but would assure him that he's coming to a better situation. Kyle Pitts is going to be 26 he's still very young: again we need to get younger there.

Likely's younger, will come with a better price tag, and doesn't have the bust label on him.

This is one of those situations where I like the *idea* of Kyle Pitts, way more than the actual player.

They're basically the same age Kyle Pitts did have a solid Rookie season. After that I blame the Falcons for his demise; I wants Pitts in FA26.

.. 3yr 20 million deal?

Are you asking 'Would I pay Kyle Pitts less than what they're paying Austin Hooper'? Yes, obviously.

Crap Kyle Pitts is the cream of the FA TE Class: he ain't coming cheap. It's a very weak FA TE class.

Tommy what about your man Cade Otton??

I was on that train until he started juggling everything that came his way under the bright lights two weeks in a row.
Pass.

Practicing juggler?? We can put him on the Jugs machine.

He’s not really a bust. Healthy he averages about 800 yds a season. He’s just not anything close to 4th overall in a draft.

.. 3yr 20 million deal?

Love you man. Your estimates for salaries are just not realistic. He’s minimum - minimum, 10 mil a year.

 

[PatsFan2]

Yeah Twin we could only get a Doppler Ganger KP at that price in the 2026 TE Market.

Well I believe that could be it. I'm of the mind Pitts pure skill set meshes better in this offense Pitts has abilities similar to Hernandez.. at TE.

Are you asking 'Would I pay Kyle Pitts less than what they're paying Austin Hooper'? Yes, obviously.

Hooper is making 20 million???

Thanks man.. love ya too! I was thinking 3 hrs 20 million offer but yes... I was way off now that you mentioned it.. Thanks DC..

Don't forget we will likely take a TE in draft top twin..

 

[Real fan 02]

Likely has 200 plus yards... I'm not against Likely.. but I'd prefer Pitts.. just my preference man..

 

[Real fan 02]

Yeah I was waaaaay off with my offer..

Yeah Twin we could only get a Doppler Ganger KP at that price in the 2026 TE Market.

DC let me know..

Crap Kyle Pitts is the cream of the FA TE Class: he ain't coming cheap. It's a very weak FA TE class.

If he don't want to come play with MVP candidate Drake then he can stay catching passe from a mediocre injury prone QB in Atlanta.
