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.

      Rookie season being key to uour argument. I didn't at all mislead about the talent Cam had to work with. Kalil was a great center. Olsen was a great TE. Our WRs were probably the worst in the league. Cam still won MVP, we went 15-1, and we went to the SB. Your attempt to bring up Cam to defend Bryce is desperate and clownish. Bryce has more talent to work with and has done WAY less.

      Not exactly sure that is an honest assesment of the talent he had to work with that year. Olsen had over 1100 yards that season making the PB, Stewart had close to 1100 total yards also going to the PB. He had Kalil at C who went to the PB, Trai Turner at RG who also went to the PB, and Michael Oher at LT who played well enough that the Panthers offered him a new contract the following year. I wouldn't call that a trash OL. He also played with a defense that was stacked with talent as well.   "The thing we are doing better this time around is actually surrounding our #1 overall draft pick QB with talent vs. asking him to completely carry the offense. I just hope that effort is leading us to realize that the guy isn't even good enough to get carried." Please.... Did you not read the list of names Newton had to work with his rookie season. I guess you missed it so I will post it again for you... Steve Smith (PB), Greg Olsen (PB), Brandon LaFell, Ted Ginn JR, Deangelo Williams (PB), Jonathan Stewart (PB), Jordan Grossn (PB), Ryan Kalil (PB) on the offensive side and then he had Luke Kuechly (PB), Jon Beason (PB), Thomas Davis (PB), Star Lotulelei, Kawann Short ( PB ),Charles Johnson, Greg Hardy (PB ), Mike Mitchell, Josh Norman (PB)  For comparison, here is who Young had his first year.  Chuba Hubbard, DJ Chark, Jonathan Mingo, Adam Thielen, Hayden Hurst, Ikem Ekwonu, Chandler Zavala, Bradley Bozeman, Nash Jensen and Taylor Morton. Not a single PB player on the list and most of them aren't even playing any longer. Additionally, his HC was fired during the season and the defense was as bad as the offense.  You might not like the comparison but saying Newton had to completely carry the offense isn't exactly fair to the 4 pro bowlers on offense who played with him that year.
