Nah he’s done but if he could play I think we’d see him there.

Edelman seems to be getting the itch to play again. Or just loves the attention with another Brady, Gronk posts.

I want them to go corner or WR in the first you just can’t trust that Godwin will be elite next year and need all weapons on deck. Christian Watson is a freak of nature and a guy that won’t pass KC at the back end he does a lot of things Tampa likes and would fit there system as well as Burks

Many have them picking Zion Johnson (LG). Gotta protect the GOAT.

Gronk still partying

Tom Brady is making it impossible to root for him anymore, and other thoughts - The Boston Globe

We embraced Brady when he played here and wished him well when he left, but who loves a controlling, glory-hog coach-killer?

Brady not getting the love from Boston media now a days. Dare I say, hate and jealousy from this guy.

By Boston media you mean the globe? No thanks.

Actually, the hate started in 2019 when Brady was being blamed for Nkeal sucking instead of Nkeal and the guy that drafted him.

One Pats fan even dubbed him Temperamental Tommy because he didn't kiss N'Keal's sorry ass.

I don't know man. This article is the most anti Brady rant I've ever seen by a country mile. Surprising, that much of the disparaging stuff is originating from Boston.

He's basically taken all the anti Brady comments at Patsfans and summarized it in the article for us lol.

No wonder Brady doesn't want to come back here.

Hopefully he won't come after us next year by going to play in Miami.

Dan’s ultimate animus is he’s forever butthurt that major league baseball is slowly dying nationwide and most importantly the Red Sox are now the 3rd team in Boston. And possibly the 4th team because the Buccaneers are likely temporarily more popular than the Red Sox in Boston. The Patriots and Brady are mostly responsible for setting that in motion here.

This is a man who would probably rank the 67 Red Sox as the greatest season in the history of Boston sports. Because he’s an arrogant old fossil.

I don't think Dan's affliction is limited by age.

Balcoball fever, catch it!

Edelman was great to watch play. He had a knack for the open spaces and was as tough as nails. But he's done.

On the ESPN "GET UP" show they weren't getting all the Brady hate from Boston writers (named Shaunessy and Volin by name) and that even if Brady had some kind of hand or influence on Arians retiring, it's been done before and in this case it was beneficial to the team. They had no problem with it.

The national media loves Brady now for the most part. As soon as you won that Super Bowl in Tampa their entire tune changed. While here in Boston the media and fans grew more bitter toward him. Brady winning in year one absolutely crushed team Bill and the vitirol just keeps spilling over.

I think another WR would be better. They will get injured

As we saw in the playoffs, OL players get injured too. They're missing a starting LG. They're not missing any WRs (Evans, Godwin, Gage, Perriman, Scotty, Johnson).

Yeah OL would be a perfect pick too, but I think this offense(assuming they still run the Arians offense) relies so much on the WR talent, that if 1 goes down and you don't have a capable replacement it goes to hell. You need at the minimum 2 good to elite WR for this offense to click.

Smith-Stinnie(Or camp winner)-Jensen-Mason-Wirfs is a elite OL.

Maybe draft one in the mid rounds?

Who knows if Johnson is available at 27 it would be a great pick to your point. I just feel they need to make sure to protect the WR position

OL is part of the offense. I believe they had lowest pressures allowed. Need to keep the 45 yo non-mobile QB upright. If Brady goes down, their season is over.

There's talk Bowles will want to run the ball more. Need a road grader at LG to make this work. If you give the GOAT enough time, he can play w/ WR3/4. We've seen it happen in NE.

They'll draft a WR, just not sure it needs to be in RD1.

No wonder Brady doesn't want to come back here.

Hopefully he won't come after us next year by going to play in Miami.

The ownership temptation of Miami is intriguing but I just don't see it as a good playing fit. I have no doubt that Brady will still be elite this year but next year is a long time for a QB who will be 46.

Tampa is the ideal situation for Brady in case he declines in 2023 and needs to be carried with his oline, running game, and elite receivers. Most of their top players and weapons are guaranteed through to 2023. This means Tampa has the talent and mentality to be all in the next two seasons.

Lastly most of the top QBs are in the AFC. Brady will struggle in Miami. I hope he stays in Tampa if indeed he plays in 2023.

Yeah Brady was treated like a Jag in NE. It's incredible that he was forced to play with a garbage offence in 2019 at age 42. Who did they get to replace Gronk? They had Edelman and who? They wanted him to retire and in a passive aggressive way provided him with inferior talent to prove their theory that Brady was in decline.

Compare that to Tampa who have 3 WR with similar and better talent level than Edelman and has rolled out the red carpet for Brady so that he can keep on and wanting to play.

I think at the end of the day, Brady will remember the difference in treatment and will thus retire a Buc.

To me it doesn't really matter where Brady is playing now that Bill and Bob kicked him off the Pats.
Imagine being the "braintrust" of the Pats and worrying about Brady coming to Miami 4 years and 1 SB ring after they dumped him. That's classic stuff right there.
