They are really doing everything they can to make their fans mad at this point.

Crazy that bryant would get any more than the league minimum. Bb really loves this guy for some reason. Couldnt they just sign him for like half the price instead of using the tender? Who else is going to pay this guy

Don’t understand the direction this team is going. Guess major changes means signing all the scrubs on your squad to money they aren’t worth.

More like the tree that starts a devastating wildfire. Bill, why do you test my devotion to you like this?

Also allowed a kr to go for a td in buffalo that lost us that lead and we never got it back. This dude is a magnet for back breaking plays

 

[captain stone]

I agree. Is your point that our backups are all better than Elu?
We have 4 starters and 6 backups. Of course, we'll add more before Training
Camp.

BACKUPS
Steuber, Ferentz, Hussey, Hines, McDermott, and Cajuste.

Elmanure > All of Them.

It’s been 24 hours since the start of the legal tampering period. You never hear about external free agents signing with the Pats prior to the legal tampering period being over. I’m sure Goodell would have a field day if our contract details got out before players could legally sign them. It’s also well-known that the Patriots request confidentiality from the players they speak to until the contract is signed.

There has been complete radio silence in the media about Orlando Brown, James Bradberry and Sean Murphy-Bunting. Pats have plenty of cap space. I’m starting to wonder….

Godwin is paid as a #1 WR because he is an #1 WR. And he had Brady. Cole Beasley had Allen. Williams had Herbert. All eliminated from the discussion as I said. I already said elite QBs is a disqualifier because elite QBs make WRs better. Jimmy G is no elite QB.

And even then, Beasely didn't consistently get 1,000 yards. He got close just one year and never got 1,000 yards. And Mike Williams has gotten two 1,000 yard seasons in his six year career.

And looked at the other guys to see if any had disqualifying factors like the #1 WR the year they got 1,000 yards was injured for a significant amount of time. Did any of the other guys have three years in a row where they had 1,000 yard seasons as you stated Meyers would or did they have one fluke 1,000 yard season?

So at least we can agree on one thing. It is riduculous to believe that Meyers is likely to get 1,000 yards in each of the next three years. You have been unable to find a single #2 WR who has done that without an elite QB or being an #1 WR quality WR themselves. I will concede it is possible that Meyers may have one year over the next three where he might get a 1,000 yards if you are willing to admit it is next to impossible that he get 1,000 yards in all three.

Seriously, with so many disqualifiers, it looks like you're rigging the parameters. I named a bunch of guys too. Jimmy G. in Josh's offense is actually going to be pretty good.

As for Godwin, he got 3 years for $41m (when you look at the void years).

It's a $13.7m a year contract for a guy that's been more productive than Meyers

But he's still a #2

Ever since he was handed his lunch by Isiah McKenzie, I have been waiting patiently for Bryants exit. Today isn't getting any better.

Tendering no ones private Bryant is just trolling : )

Hmm, I think I've heard nothing about Isaiah Wynn...

I was hoping we'd bring in another CB.

For now this is alright, but if you draft, say, Witherspoon, that means you have J Jones, M Jones, Ja Jones as your 4, with Dugger, Phillips, Mills and Peppers too, all 8 of whom should see the field.

At that point, Bryant should be cut for earning $1.5m above the vet minimum.

If we don't draft another CB, then I could see holding onto him.
