The Pats just spent a fortune in free agency, so I don't buy this conspiracy theory about Bill "hiding" him. They could have paid him or put a first round tender on him if they wanted. 

Yep. Seems like the Pats are almost baiting someone into giving them a 2nd or maybe he was wanting way more than they were willing to pay and they're looking for someone else to negotiate the contract for them.

Agreed. This seems fishy to me. Especially for a UDFA guy.

This is typical of the Patriots

Would you rather have him and a soon to be demanding contract--or any player who is available in EARLY round 2?   A Panther second rounder is much more valuable than the Bucs second rounder, for example.  So we have more value with our second rounder than most teams.  This process removes negotiations, so NO.

As tempting as he would be, we need to keep our 2nd. We are foomg to have to build through the draft if nothing else but to keep our salary cap manageable. There's always a few 1st round grade guys that slide. Can't really afford to pass that up for a one year rental during a rebuild. Top 2nd rounder or 3rd round comp pick.

Agree. At 39, there will be a starting LT, CB, FS or MLB if we need them, all on a cheap 4-year rookie deal.

      I am really sorry  that  happened to you they say to never meet your sports heroes i have friends who met  mickey mantle when they were young and he was a belligerent alcoholic at the time  ut broke their hearts  I had the opportunity to meet and spend  time with Cam Newton.     He was the polar opposite of Steve Smith and his public image.   Polite.  Honest when asked question.  You could tell the things that mattered to him and the things that  didnt. The disappointments in himself and the things that hurt him  those qualities make him quite a good interviewer too  i genuinely liked him   Im sure as young, rich, sports hero, he has not been a choir boy but there is goodness in him  the time i met him i took one of my friends with me from the west coast. She said she didn't like him and wasn’t enthusiastic about meeting him.  She left loving him   No one can say anything bad about ‘her Cam’ anymore

      So, after Sunday's game does that mean we're stuck with Bryce for the foreseeable future?

      Agree about oline. They've tried their best to improve that area. But honestly, has it looked like the most expensive oline in the NFL to you? Not just with Bryce. With Dalton's one game where they almost got the old man killed.  Also YAC shouldn't always be hitting a guy in stride while he's running full speed. Pickens killed us after the catch and those weren't all hit-in-stride plays. I remember a play in Miami when a guy caught a 5 yards curl and took it like 30-40 yards to the house. We don't have that in Carolina. Horn might be the closest thing to that but he can't get significant PT for whatever reason. If Bryce keeps trusting his receivers to make plays, I think he'll become more consistent. Seemed like he only trusted TMac. And force feeding one receiver isn't sustainable. Defenses will start to blanket him and take him out of the game. And yeah, keep taking deep shots. I hate all that dink and dunk football. Hate it.

      Dan Marino sucked too I guess. Washed up Elway carried by Terrell Davis was actually better than prine Elway. Lol
