The form of NFL flattery...

To have a team with the history of the Patriots lurking us to ****** up our players. First they snatched up Tyler Gaffney and now they just pounced on a former player, Ben Hartstock. I seriously hope that we don't let Brandon Williams go. I can imagine how well they'd use him and I picture how successful he'd be in their system. But I kinda like the fact that they're watching us. That means that we have something to watch...

Honestly as far as personnel goes the Pats don't really seem to be all that consistent. They certainly draft well enough, but they're rarely just loaded with talent. Always getting by on Brady and BB.

I'm talking out of my ass but it feels about right.

The actually draft on a fairly consistently shitty level. Stock piling picks only means so much when you constantly draft shitty players on the rare occasion that you actually use one.

No, they really don't.  Take a look at the last 5 or 6 years and rethink what you said.  They've not really drafted that well, they rarely find success in their FA acquisitions, they just play in a weak division and ride on the laurels of their previous success pre-spygate.

    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
    • The Jets and Bill's are statistically worse
