If the Pats let go of Bennett...

.. What are the chances we go after him?  He can block and catch, and it would instantly upgrade our offense.  If we drafted Fournette as well, our offense would be very physical and formidable.  I like it, and we would probably have money yet to sign some defense.

 

What do you think?

he was clearly the most talented receiving option on the field for the Patriots and didn't really do that much in the Superbowl. Now Atlanta may have game-planned around him but no thanks- he's going to be asking for a truckload of money that we need to spend elsewhere (see DE, LT)

 

I'd rather draft a TE with potential and have Greg coach him up than a guy who is coasting off a Superbowl win and a fat contract.

The guy blocks like a beast, he's basically like having an extra lineman.  With him and Fournette our offense would be really good, then we could spend a mid round pick on OT and dump the rest into defense.  

 

Personally, I really hope we get either Bennett or DeSean Jackson, our offense needs another weapon

I mean its not like he's Ray Rice or something so maybe it was an exaggeration. but he is definitely an outspoken, me first kinda player. kinda like a steve smith. but smitty was an exception because we drafted him and he was a part of so many special seasons that really put this team on the map. the likely-hood of us signing him would be pretty slim imo. though I was surprised when we signed Finnegan.

Oh I see. I think he's more of a Sherman type than Smitty tho. I give Bennett some credit tho. He uses his platform for good and he speaks out. But he's a beast tho. If we signed him he would arguably be the best route runner we have besides Greg.

    • 3 wins might get us the no. 1 pick.  5 wins probably puts us in the top 5.  Look on the bright side.  
    • It's not just "week two". Bryce has started 30 games at this point and it's still the same poo. Unless the opposing defense is playing Charmin soft and we seemingly have nothing to play for, Bryce can't do anything.  I'd rather try to land a Jameis Winston or Sam Howell for a late round pick than play Hooker but at this point we gotta try something else.
    • It's really all on Tepper. He was the engine behind the Bryce trade, which the roster obviously wasn't ready for. We wasted a year proving that the roster wasn't ready to support a young quarterback, and then spent a mandatory offseason using all possible resources to patch up the offensive line and find offensive playmakers. Then the defense was the worst in the league, and we spent an offseason trying to solve that. We've been chasing our tail, dealing with problems that Tepper let stagnate while he chased immediate contention, and then the shiny toy of a young QB.  Dan's got a competent contract guy and he's finally hired someone to stop him from wasting draft capital in bad trades. Those two things alone put a functional floor on his performance. I don't think he's got the vision to turn us into the Eagles or the Chiefs, But if the owner's never going to agree to a proper rebuild, it probably doesn't matter.
