Patriots Rumor Patriots potentially trading for Aiyuk (Update - Patriots Out of the Running)

[Triumph]

Its odd that Pitt would do this trade when they're a franchise that strikes gold whenever drafting WRs.

With that being said, Im not convinced that Russ Wilson is finished. His numbers were better than decent last season [ except the fumbles ], but for some reason Denver was not a good fit for him.

The 49ers chose Shanahan and he hand picked Lynch, they’re buddies but Shanahan is the straw that stirs the drink.

Wolf and Jon make personnel decisions now, I’m sure Mayo weighs but it appears like Mayo can just concentrate on head coaching his stable of 50 coaches.

Don’t most teams have a lot of coaches?

 

[Wozzy]

Kyle controls the 53 Lynch controls the 90... Lynch was there in an assistant role before he got the GM job. Lynch was extended in 2020!

It’s literally there in Lynch’s own words, Shanahan hired Lynch… not the other way around.

Facts aren’t subjective or malleable, you can’t make them up as you go.

Now I’m going to get pinpointed again as a trouble maker for brining facts into a conversation.

BB bashing.

The BB bashing is all Mac Jones fault. Clearly.

Or...................................................

Pittsburgh is never going to present an accepted offer because SF wants to keep him, and knows Aiyuk will not go to NE or Cleveland.

This might how the Niners plan to win. They gave Aiyuk the chance to make his own deal.

Certainly possible. If Aiyuk only has 1 acceptable destination then SF can demand more in trade comp from that team, and that team will also be inclined to pay him less due to having no competition and also to make up for the fact that they'd have to send so much trade comp for him.

Lol.. here we go.. earnie adams Said himself on games with names Bill had a larger staff In comparison to the last few seasons...

You implied BB went with fewer coaches because he wanted to hoard money… with zero evidence to support it.

The reality is his coaches get poached for head coaching positions, like Josh leaving for a second time to the Raiders.

We know he isn't necessarily looking for a great team/QB with a shot at a ring. If he was he would stay in SF.

I get it now! This is you hiding and peeking on the forum ready to pounce when there is "BB bashing"

 

[Wozzy]

I don’t care either way. Have all the coaches you want. But saying the Patriots had fewer coaches because Bill was greedy is the BB sucks crowd whining over fictional nonsense again. They should take it to the safe space the mods made for them.

No!!!! It's plenty of evidence. As I mentioned to the other bill defender... the herald reports uncovered everything in 2022 they went deep into the organization and spoke directly with front office people, trainers, ball boys, coaches ect. It's all reported

Mac is good, when can we expect him to take Trevor Lawrence’s job, you’ve kept us in suspense long enough?

We missed out on Randy Moss 2.0 in Aiyuk, maybe Jacksonville will get him so Mac will look good.

I totally blame Mac Jones for your poor reading comprehension. It's his fault like everything else. Obviously.

 

[Real fan 02]

He also got paid more so he wouldn’t take the Colts job.

Coaching salaries don’t count against the cap, if you want to blame someone for going cheap… talk to the bosses. You can spend an endless amount on coaches.

Realfan woke up this morning and thought he’d make up some alternate history… with a small smattering of BB bashing.

Who's Bill bashing?? You continue to hold bills NAVY jock strap like Josh held onto to Brady's! You took a shot at Mayo's staff calling it 50 coaches... every organization these days has a large staff... HINT: the head coach can't coach every position group himself.

 

[Ring 6]

The Patriots are 11th in the league in cash spending this year. The Patriots came into this offseason with more cap space than almost any other team. You don’t spend a lot of money on one or two year deals for older players when you are in year one of a rebuild year.

And by the reports, the Patriots were willing to overpay for Aiyuk, but he didn’t want to come here. Probably because he wants to go to Pittsburgh.

When you have the most cap space, and the barest roster being 11th in cash is not a proud statement. They did slightly more than just resigning the 4-13 roster and left 43 million unspent.
Thats not what a franchise that is serious about competing does.
