Eh this is true.

I can't stand it every time I hear the Pats made a move in the draft.

But.

I don't remember the last time they drafted a player that turned out to be anybody..

Mayo's good but past that..?

I agree they aren't the best. McCourty and Tate are two good picks in the last 2 years, along with Mayo and Guyton previously.

Regardless, they are draft trading geniuses.

The rich get richer, and the desperate keep on failing. There is a reason why the Raiders are...well...the Raiders. Bad choices over and over again without correcting the problem. As a Skins fan, we've seen this poo go on for the past 12 years under Snyder's rule. Thankfully, that piece of poo is out of the football operations and spending his time bullying journalists in DC. I was happy as hell to see us move out of the 10 spot and pick up a extra 2nd. Reports are that the Raiders have contacted us about getting that #41 spot for their 1st in 2012. Apparently they want Kaepernick.

I think its why they are so willing to part with picks. They build from FA and on the belief that Vets will take a cut to win. They also win by one of the best calculating HC in the game. Just good coaching all around TBH.

I have some friends that are Pats fans and they're fed up with the Pats continuing to stockpile picks and NOT using them. What good is having 10 high value picks if you're just going to continue trading down?

Obviously it works given their success, but it's just confusing lol.

Jokes on them... They suck at drafting.

This is the Offense only....the majority of the starters were drafted by NE and I dare say their starting lineup is better than Carolina's.

      Canales doesn't sound all the way sold on Bryce

      By LinvilleGorge · Posted

      Yep, the Panthers powers that be seem desperate to convince themselves he can clear the bare minimum bar of demanding a legit franchise QB contract. Canales seems to be laying the groundwork here of building the case that all of Bryce's shortcomings are still there and even more glaring than you may have thought while his strengths aren't nearly as strong as you had hoped and aren't near enough to make up for the lack of pure physical tools. When you have historically anomalous lack of measurables you need historically anomalous positive intangibles to make up for it. That was always issue with Bryce as a prospect. Like Parcells said when evaluating him, "he better walk on water".

      I'm honestly not sure how much "west coast" plays into it. There's a huge difference between Tucson, AZ and Spokane, WA where he spent the previous two decades of his career. Chapel Hill is significantly different than Spokane but way more similar to it than Tucson. You're talking about a pretty significant plane ride to get back home either way. He and his family would be flying private and direct so we're talking about a 3ish hour flight vs. a 5ish hour flight. That's basically a wash. It's not like he went from Gonzaga to another PNW program. Tucson is a dramatic departure from Washington state. Honestly a far bigger departure climatically and scenery wise than Chapel Hill would be.

      Goalie an Issue Again?

      By Stumpy · Posted

      When asked if he thought he was close to returning to game action, "When you skate just with the goalie coach, it's tough to understand what your level is. Today, Svech scored on me a couple — probably a bad moment for me. I don't know. I'm probably very far from play if he scores on me." God, I love Kucci!
