will the Pats spend?

[Wozzy]

The Patriots hate on their players every year as they have to make financial decisions based on past and projected future performance. After they signed Dugger to that horrible contract, they found a team that would help them get rid of him. They are haters.

They just kicked Diggs to the curb after he was their leading reciever, but they are haters.

They upgraded to Brown, they would have had to pay Diggs again so they didn’t kick him to the curb.

Applying your logic to the conversation, you are hating on Patriots because you don't think Boutte is good enough of a WR if he got more targets as @rkarp1 has proposed. But you flip the script on a poster if they single out another player.

I called Boutte good, I didn’t try to shine a piece of coal into a diamond and say he was great. I didn’t do what you do… say all our players are bad and overpaid.

They made the Super Bowl because their young QB played at an MVP level, had competent coaching, last place schedule, got use out of their draft picks, signed competent FA's, played well as a team and got some luck their way facing teams with multiple injuries including a starting QB in the playoffs.

They had Drake Maye in 2024. The coaching therefore the team building and team around Drake was much better in 2025z

Believe it or not, every team has a weakness and/or players who are underperforming/overpaid.

Most teams don’t win the most games in the NFL and their entitled fans tell us they did it despite having poor players. It’s one or the other, it can’t be both.
