High character players with football intelligence

Recommended Posts

The idea that the Patriots had a run because they drafted "smart" players is ludacris,(They drafted Aaron Hernandez) and crafty marketing to appeal to the snobby fugs in the Boston/New England area that think they are more intelligent than everyone else in the country.  They were winners because they had Tom Brady and the league let their offensive line get away with holding to protect Brady. The Patriots are about as mid as a team can be in the post Brady years, presumably they have the same draft process.

I mean we just had Rhule who wanted to sell the farm to get Watson so...

Tepper and Fitt wanted to sell the farm to get Watson, along with more than a few other teams...

 

No coach is going to admit to wanting or even accepting low character players without football intelligence so I wouldn't read much into this. If a guy helps us win and isn't a locker room issue I don't really care what he does off the field. I still think we got fuged over hard by the Hardy situation. He was a complete idiot but if the league didn't steal him along with that $14M in cap space from us in 2014 I honestly think we could've beaten that Seahawks team and gone further.

ESPN put out a 7 round mock today that has us taking that kid from Army in the 3rd.

I'd be all for that, clearly someone who is going to be of high character and willing to put in the work to be great, and he has a ton of potential as a pass rusher as well.

Would love it if we ended up drafting him.

Quick Tip: Learn how to spell words like "ludicrous" before you try to use them.

Show us on the doll where Ben Affleck and Matt Damon touched you.

Its so weird really, to critique a persons grammar (spell check, really) on a football forum in 2023. Why waste your precious time on Earth doing that? You got the 'main idea' of the post, no? Then the (human to human) communication was effective. God bless.

    • Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"
    • Yeah your right the owner was copping hand shandies while all this was going down 
    • I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
