Patriots gonna Patriots...

New England just pulled off yet another trade. Sent Jamie Collins to the Browns for a 3rd round draft pick.  Recently acquired Van Noy via trade as well.  Jamie Collins was going to be an FA after 2016 and guess Patriots wanted to get something out of him than letting him walk... GMs should take note this is how you trade and make it effective.

Well they were going to get a 3rd round comp pick in 2018 for him by letting him walk after the year and now they get a 3rd round comp pick in 2017 so they didn't really get too much out of it.

I get your point, and I suppose every spot counts, but I'm thinking they would have received a third round pick for his loss anyway. But, yeah, I like the way Billy B is forward thinking---seemingly always thinking---and thinks outside the box.

    • Yeah okay. We as an organization have been more patient with him than many. And there has been a small parade of guys drafted since he was, also to bad teams, that have passed him. Some have lapped him. As a fan I am out of patience but he gets this year it is out of my hands always has been. I just hope the bar is higher than it has been for him.    FWIW, XL dropped two passes last year. He did do some other bad stuff, just saying. 
    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.
