I honestly think his value is more along the lines of a conditional 7th. Hence why I'd rather keep him.

Please make him an in the box strong safety. Kam Chancellor. That's how he needs to be used.

I'm done with this guy. If one of the other mods wants to let him out of jail, fine. But the spamming new threads for every thought that passes through his skull... fug.

He is. But there's more to being an NFL player than just the Xs and Os and on-field technique. Mentors are a good thing for kids trying to learn how to be professionals while also dealing with being newly made millionaires.

I'd take a strong veteran mentor for our top 10 pick rookie LT over a conditional late round pick. What are we gonna do, draft another long snapper?

Seems like a helluva lot less actual work.

Great players becoming great coaches are a rarity indeed. Cam Erving is well past his prime as a player but he's a long time starting NFL LT so I'm sure he has a wealth of information and experience to share.

Mentoring oftentimes has little to do with actual playing ability.

I wish you nothing but the absolute best. Hang in there man.

Just ridiculous. You don't do yourself any favors when you blatantly lie about something everyone can see with their own eyes.

Our OL coach seems to be doing fine and I very seriously doubt we could get a 5th. I'm thinking more along the lines of a conditional 7th. He has very little value.

If Erving has been the type of mentoring presence for Ickey as that previous article made him out to be, I'd honestly rather keep him through the season than trade him for a conditional late round pick or something like that.

What was the context of the "I'm out" comment? I mean, it's possible he was basically just telling a teammate he'd been benched.

What's that old saying again? If you have more than one QB then you don't actually have a QB? I think Zappe has the moxie and good natured attitude to be a Minchew or Fitzmagic type. Basically a career backup that has some moments as a bridge starter type. I'm not sure where I see Jones. If he has the right mentality he could make it as a backup too but he just seems like a douchebag and has twice now tried to blatantly injure opponents with dirty bullshit. Not sure that's stuff is gonna fly for a backup. Either way, the Pats should be QB shopping this off-season.

Might. But a lot better odds of a high 1st round QB working out vs. dumpster diving for QBs.

Welp, that'll do it for me this evening. This is turning into a straight up beatdown.

Losing a franchise QB almost always leads to a period of flailing afterwards. Montana to Young, Favre to Rodgers, Manning to Luck are rarities. What we're watching here is the norm.

I'll watch this next Zappe drive and that'll do it for me. This one's in the freezer.

They haven't. They've relied for years on vets taking discounts to come play with Brady and Belichick to try to win championships. Not sure any vets are gonna be begging to come to NE on a discount these days.

He's nowhere close to being fired if that's what you're implying. And after Brady won a ring in TB without him I think he desperately wants to prove he can do it without Brady. I don't think he's going anywhere anytime soon.

A Bears' TD here pretty much puts this one on ice. Even a FG makes it a long shot for the Pats. Hell, it's probably already a long shot.

Pretty easy call. The Pats' offense looked like our offense this year under Rhule when they had Jones out there.

That play right there is what makes Fields still so intriguing.

Yeah, that was such a bad take. Cam initially injured his shoulder on a tackle after an INT when KB quit on a route. His shoulder got finished off by a hit in the pocket.
