I tried to attach a larger image but it's too big.The picture you posted had 4 DL, Harrison and 3 DBs. I see no 50s.

They certainly aren't a pure 3-4 D like they were but I think it's debatable to say they don't play it.
Sure but the base D is primarily a 4 nan front in nickel with the dL shifted toward strength.Yup. The Pats use many different concepts along the line. They'll often line up with a 3-4, 2-gap look to one side, and a 4-3, 1-gap look to the other. And then change to something completely different during the snap count.
You are hitting the nail on the head. No one will offer the Patriots anything for players they perceive they can get for free later.The issue with trades in the NFL is usually you get "chump change" in return.. most trades seem to occur to underperforming players who were perceived to be better fits in the NFL than they actually are..
Hoyer was a nice add-on, last year, when it was the only option. Unfortunately, he’s almost certainly the only option again this season, which kind of sucks.
On the other hand how many practice squad QBs ever contribute anything? It’s the longest of long shots. Wouldn’t do much good to have had the guy if he can’t play.What's a bit frustrating, though, is that a lot of this stems from their decision not to have a QB on the practice squad for most of the last decade. [As an example, I'm fairly certain that if Brady hadn't been facing a suspension in '16, the Pats wouldn't have drafted Brissett.]
I’m guessing that they’ll be able to find someone who coughs up a draft pick, but I’d be happy if he somehow made his way over here.It wouldn't be out of character for the Jete to declare Darnold the starter and cut Bridgewater at the end of Camp.
Yep, I find this scenario far more likely than the trading of players.Not who but what mid/late rd picks will be traded.

Big TB fan. I had Carr, Jimmy & him all graded fairly closely so I'd be very happy.I’m guessing that they’ll be able to find someone who coughs up a draft pick, but I’d be happy if he somehow made his way over here.
The issue of course, is that he wouldn’t know anything and probably couldn’t be counted on to backup the position during 2018. It looks like Hoyer is the guy to me, although I wouldn’t mind being pleasantly surprised.
Agreed. I would have said Mason befor the Wynn injury. Brown seems to have really fallen out of favor.Malcom Brown
Based upon what? Brown is playing with the first unit.Agreed. I would have said Mason befor the Wynn injury. Brown seems to have really fallen out of favor.
Brown was a starter on Thursday again though, next to Shelton and ahead of Guy. He seems to be trending in the right direction.Agreed. I would have said Mason befor the Wynn injury. Brown seems to have really fallen out of favor.
I am afraid if the trade partner hears Richards name there will not be any trades.If a team calls and mentions the name Jordan Richards I’m accepting the deal before I even hear the offer.

Out of favor with whom? BB? Because they didn't extend him?Agreed. I would have said Mason befor the Wynn injury. Brown seems to have really fallen out of favor.

If Richards gets let go to a team we play, we can all be on the other side of something like this and get a good, hearty laugh out of it...
