Maybe time for Derby to mostly sit until opening day. Maybe Gronk needs someone to be his assistant on the sidelines.

 

[Froob]

You can compare him...just don't bring up the raping....

Heh just kidding. Don't want to get ahead of ourselves, but kid might be able to play in this league. I'd still prefer a vet to backup Garp, but I like Biscett sticking around if slippin Jimmy gets traded.

 

[AtomicDawg]

DERBY...wow, this is your coming out party.....catching stuff in traffic now...sitting it open spaces....daaaamn

 

[PP2]

I really do hope Derby makes it and contributes, at least for sake of that whole "Rookies that go on IR never pan out" stigma.

He just made the team.

 

[JackBauer]

Wow, that's the kind of catch that'll land you on the roster Derby

Not even a question at this point IMO.

 

[The Gr8est]

He makes Jeff Cumberland look like Zach Sudfeld.

Not quite sure what that means, but it feels profound.

 

[primetime]

Triple option there. Brissett adds some wrinkles.

 

[varjao]

So do we trade Gronk for how many picks?

 

[RobertWeathers]

Duffels looked good in preseason.

But not as good as Derby

 

[AtomicDawg]

Gaffney exploding through holes....liking it

 

[sevengables_2207]

Derby. I don't even know what to say.

He had you at "hello", Ross.

 

[jefmblrd]

This is a rookie QB project right? Already better than Mallett.

Was thinking that last week. He doesn't seem to throw bullets into the turf like Mallett.

43

pats need to convert to 3 TE offense and revolutionize the game. I'm sort of joking but I've always thought about how 3 tight end offense would work

 

[AtomicDawg]

LeBlanc, Derby, Gaffney, Johnson, Flowers, Thuney. Blount....players of the game/week so far

 

[Froob]

Biscuit looks a lot more poised this week.

 

[RobertWeathers]

Was thinking that last week. He doesn't seem to throw bullets into the turf like Mallett.

He's already better than Mallet. Better touch

 

[BradyFTW!]

With this OL, I consider it a win if there's only 1 guy in the backfield immediately after the snap.

10 TE offense?

 

[The Gr8est]

As a bonus Derby is a converted QB. Trick play potential is always there
