NFL: Pats relationship with Mac Jones "gone sideways"

It's so dumb.  Ohio State had Haskins who was a one year wonder and some mental issues and Fields who is in a terrible situation.  There has only been 4 total drafted in the first round one in 1941 (died in war before he even played), one in 1983 and then Haskins and Fields.  People are asking like OSU QBs taken in the first and busting happen all the time.  Not to mention judging a player by his school is just nonsense.

>be qb
>get selected by the bears in the first round
>immediately die in action
yep, sounds about right

From Albert Breer...

Now, the thought of trading for Jones is probably gonna cross someone's mind after hearing this, even if only for a moment.

I don't know that it should.

Why? Because what the Pats would ask is likely more than I'd actually believe he's worth.

Either way, when things are going "sideways" up in Patriot Land, it's always good for a chuckle 😄

I said I wanted Bailey Zappe over anyone else in the 2022 NFL Draft as far as QB's we're concerned. The dude threw for 63 touchdowns in FBS in one season. He torched App State (sadly) and Michigan State with his comparatively poor supporting cast.

Now look at him. I also wanted Parsons over Horn. I wanted the Alabama tackle over Ickey. 

I hate being RIGHT GOD DAMNIT.

We don't want Mac Jones. History doesn't repeat but it often rhymes. 

Drew Bledsoe was traded to the Bills after being replaced by Brady. Was there for 3 forgettable years which he obviously hated, always whining and complaining. Went to Dallas, was average at best, and retired in 2007 when replaced with Romo. Teams should pay attention to Belichick when it comes to QBs.

Agreed with all of it.

    • overall agree on the draft grade as a whole on on each pick, but every time I read (and I have read it more than once) that we "gave up two firsts" for Bryce, I am confused. We gave up the 2024 first, but we swapped 2023 firsts, so we didn't give up anything there. We did give up our former first rounder in DJ, but I don't think thats what you mean as one of the "firsts" we gave up.
    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
