A 6th is poo especially since they are not taking all of it on.  Again, why not wait if this was the best deal and we are still going to have to pay for him?  Saving 5 million isnt poo this year.  Its not the difference between playoff or not.  And now we still need a backup.  I just dont understand the timing if this is the deal

This is my point. You have no idea if we could move him after the draft. It's clear we don't want him here, this could have been the best and only deal we would get.. take it. Also you're short sighted on your cap savings. 5mil rolls into next year, we are trying to sign Moton long term, we will be making FA acquisitions during the season, etc. You're way way trying to oversimplify this into a one year thing that it is not.

Stephon Gilmore and a potential draft day trade: With the NFL draft set to get underway on Thursday at 8 p.m., the Patriots are projected to draft a quarterback. Of course, exactly where that happens (and which one) remains to be seen.

According to a recent report from ESPN’s Dianna Russini, Bill Belichick might be willing to use a major piece of the team’s roster in order to move up (should New England want to do that).

“Stephon Gilmore is in his final year of a five-year contract with the New England Patriots,” Russini explained. “He’s making about $7 million this season. The New England Patriots could perhaps deal Stephon Gilmore in a package to move up, if they are in the business of getting a quarterback

“I did speak to a team in the top-10 who told me that they had calls with New England,” said Russini.

Both Detroit and Carolina make sense with this.

That would be DOPE, and one of the only scenarios where I would be cool with trading back.  If we can get a CB1 AND still draft an OT or another stud at 15 we would be sitting pretty.

If we do in fact take a QB at 8 his value goes to like zero.  Everyone would know at that point he is being released.  

Decent move as we basically traded Teddy, a 2nd and 4th for Darnold.

Again, why not wait?  If Denver is going to do this a day before the draft they damn sure would have done it if Fields was on the board when we pick.   Probably get a better deal knowing they struck out in the qb race

Please no. He's almost 31 and in the last year of his deal. And, if the Patriots get rid of you you're almost done.

Yep, zero interest in picking up a CB with 1 year remaining on his contract.

At least as a major piece of the trade.

      Mike Kaye’s take: 2026 NFL free agency predictions

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      A 2 year deal for Coker would be terribly short sighted as I pointed out in another thread the other day. T-Mac will be eligible for an extension after 2 more seasons, and while there is still 2 years to go, he's very much looked like the type of player you extend right away, knowing waiting will only cost more money and take longer before the contract becomes a bargain with rising contracts every year. So if we sign Coker to a 2 year extension, that means we either let Coker walk after those 2 years or we don't extend T-Mac when we should, as I can't see signing both in the same off season much of an option, it was terrible for the Bengals this year. I like doing a 1 year deal for Coker to set his market value with a full season as the #2, and then sign him to a 3 or 4 year deal after that, which also separates Coker and T-Mac's contract years to help keep both around instead of having to choose at some point, like the Bengals should have done. I also think coming to an agreement on a multi year deal right now could be tough, the team will want to pay the rate of his actual production so far and his agent will want to be paid on his potential from his few breakout games, everyone might just be too far apart for a multi year deal.

      Carolina Panthers pick No. 19-2026 NFL Draft

      By CBird · Posted

      I would love Sonny Styles!.   I don’t think he slips that far.   Get the best OT available at 19.  There is a good chance icky will miss next year and then come back and may switch to guard.

      Then they will have to depend on rookie tackles for awhile. They've got about 1 more good season in Moton and who knows if Ikey will ever return full strength. Better start drafting at 1 on day 2 at least. I personally would prefer a 1st round LT myself but I will take what I can get.
