Patriots Player Departure WR Tyquan Thornton Released; 2022 2nd round draft bust

[Real fan 02]

How old is Moore? I only ask because whoever they obtain, regardless of position in all 3 phases, I'd want them to be young enough to be impact players for at least 4 years starting with their 1st season with New England. And of course, we need to start crushing it in drafts from here on out, where misses are more the exception than the rule.

Agreed DJ is 27 so is Higgins I think DK is a bit older maybe 28 or 29.. but yes you want them to grow with the young core of WRs. You said it.. we need to hit on these drafts at WRs seriously!!

To have any success in this league the receiver has to go for the ball once in a while. He can't expect it always to fall perfectly in his hands.

The best receivers are tough as nails. They view it as their ball. It's not just sucking at separation that makes a bad group.

It really is a problem on this team, but Thornton was the poster boy.

LOL, the one route/thing he should have at least been good at

Off to KC!

"Yo, just run straight as fast as you can..." "Whatta ya mean?"

I heard of a one trick pony... Thornton was a no trick pony.

well, if he can't make it there he can't make it anywhere...

You're reaching badly here and you rebuttal shows you have nothing to back it up with. And if you go where I think you're going to go on why Bill was fired, you're walking yourself into a check mate.

Joe Thuney was the only player on offense or defense who made an Pro Bowl/All Pro during his stint in NE who immediately left after that. So what I bolded is false.

There were more. You're just blind to it

I was exaggerating for effect. It's called humor. Look it up.

You've been a pisspot for several years, so no, you dont get the benefit of the doubt

The Dropped pass from Maye did it for me...he could have still caught it on the bobble. Maye throws perfect deep passes good bye and good riddance Thornton.

The people who helped make that decision and a bunch of others just like it are still here with no one coming after their job.

Turns out speed isn't everything. Just being able to run fast doesn't an NFL receiver make.

Why didn’t someone learn that lesson with Josh Boyce?

Remember how exciting it was when

He has to get his mind right first............ most likely only old people will get this

Cool Hand Luke is a classic and a must see with a great cast.

To kill a Mockingbird is another must see.

They can't make movies like this anymore.

Strange and Thornton back to back was brutal.

Cole Strange have a lot to prove next year.

Our WR scouts demonstrably do not have the capacity to learn...

 

[PatsFan2]

Tremendous. But dEr CoLLaBoRaTIoN or something.

I also didn’t like the Zappe pick. Howell was way better if they wanted to go QB in that round and he was right there.

The best pick was knuckle head Jack Jones but he is what he is. To think who could have had... Pickens - Doubs - Shakir - Howell and Purdy.

4 overall, Thuney, Marcus Jones, Mac Jones, JC Jackson, but besides this, a guy like Gonzalez and Barmore are certainly impact players. I would say they are BETTER than the guys who made All-Pro and Pro Bowl. There are others like that
