If Cook signed for a couple of million more guaranteed than Elliot did, then we have our answer.
Your right I'm curious to know what he signed for if someone hasn't posted it. Now we have to defend him, Wilson, lazard.. glad we have mapu!
 
Elliot is literally the lesser of 2 evils…as far as we know. $ prob played a part too.
I agree, Cook is still a dynamic player but we know our Team and money definitely played a part.
 
Wait, you’d rather have Elliot over Cook? Interesting, did you watch either last year?big difference between the two right now.
The first sentence in my post answers your question. But now I just remembered Elliot was suspended for domestic abuse.

Cook is clearly the better player, but bigger piece of ****.

Aaannd we have our answer:


Bill's decision now appears to have been significantly more about the money compared to the other stuff.

Disagree Elliot is a better fit for what we need.
Pass protection and third and short is the number one concern and Elliot checks those boxes.

Bill was never, ever going to pay 7-8.5 million for a RB.
 
How the hell would ?I know?
I hit the thing like 3 times....

Not really.

Zeke complements better with what they already have in Mondre (and potentially Montg).
Bill was trying hard over several years incl this offseason to bring in a big drill.
Arguably, the way OL saga is going, Zeke is simply the better option for the year (on paper that is).
 
At this point, the most important skill a Patriots RB can have is pass blocking! I hope Zeke can do it.

As I said before, the most devastating pass blocker I ever saw in a Patriots uniform was Corey Dillon. He did just block guys, he destroyed them. They would be looking out their earhole after Dillon beaned them. I guess he felt it was payback time and he definitely took revenge.

I don't remember what Sam Bam Cunningham did as far as pass blocking, but he was a great run blocker.

Agreed, and that was my point: that not signing Cook and signing Elliot had to do less with the off-the-field stuff and more with the do-re-me stuff.

I guess I went away too long during the off-season - Adam Jones? Pac-man? I don't understand...

Most of bills decisions at this point come down to the money. Has to get a "deal". Like the DeAndre Hopkins saga.

That being said I like the signing.
 
There was also a former Defensive Back named Adam Jones, whose nickname was Pac-Man.
I hope you’re joking. I’ve been watching football since 1980. I know who the Adam Jones someone brought up is and who the former Bengal CB was.
