Did the Pats really "win" free agency?

Hearing a lot of BS about how the Pats have killed everyone else in FA, and a name that keeps coming up is the Panthers and Kony Ealy. Some idiot on Mike n Mike told everyone that we shouldn't pay attention to his production during the regular season so far in his career but to watch the SB where he dominated... according to this moron Dave basically got bent over and abused. 

What say you guys?

I honestly feel this will be Ealy's breakout year. We'll see with the Pats, but I'm thinking he puts up 12 sacks and then demands elite DE money which obviously the Panthers wouldn't have paid and neither will the Pats. 

But a team like the Niners or Browns will hop all over him in 2018 if he puts up that kind of production.

They traded the last pick in the first and a 3rd for a guy that has proven he can compete in the NFL, given their HOF QB another weapon in a passing game league, and set themselves up to let Brady carry them again. Given BillyB's drafting record, I say they won that trade by a mile. 

Easy, I'm not sure about, but if anyone can get him to perform like he did in SB50, it's going to be BillyB.

They got Gilmore, Cooks, and an underrated Rex Burkhead (who's probably going to kill it in their system), and they re-signed Hightower to a relatively good contract, so yeah, they're doing their thing. I suspect they'll be even more trouble this year than the last.

The Patriots are known for getting the best out of their players. I'm sure he'll do just as good, if not better than what brandon lafell did over there. I realize that they play different positions; but I'm sure Kony's stats will improve in that very succesful system.

    • Bryce has been in the NFL 3 years and still looks like a very mediocre QB. Most games are nothing but mediocre plays with a highlight reel every now and then.  He is a very INCONSISTENT QB and it’s very fustrating. He does not deserve a 5th year option, even though the Panthers and all the dumb asses in the front office will give it to him.
    • I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two. 
    • Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!
