Hope he plays better here.

Hot commodity? For an unfocused corner that bites at every fake?

Thank God, an awful player !

He sucked last year, in training camp he was getting smoked by Barnes and Ross. In the 1st preseason game the 3rd string Jags were owning him. Yet there were still tons of people of this site who thought he was playing well. LOL !

Where are all the Butler Butt boys now ? Telling us how this is a bad move. Doubt we'll hear from them.

This one saddens me as I was so excited when the Pats got him. Major disappointment. We waited for Butler to "make a f*cking play, Darius" like Brady shouted to him from the sideline last season, but it never happened. Officially a bust for us.

I watched DB from day 1 at UConn and I'll tell you that the problems he had here, he had there. He struggled to make a play on the ball when he had to turn and run with the wr.

Per @josephperson, #Panthers claim former #Patriots CB Darius Butler.

1st team in the waiver claim order...

Their secondary sucks. Not sure how this will help.

Butler never regressed because he was clueless from Day 1.

I would love to see him be successful, The PI calls are pretty bad but maybe he can change with a different coaching staff. The Pats had a bad secondary last year and of course the fans are going to blame someone. Don''t forget Meriweather was bad which could of effected the play of Butler. Corners sometimes need help from the safety, if the safety sucks then its not going to help the CB.

Pats fans are retarded anyhow so I don't care what they think.

he sounds like their version of everette brown

Difference is, Everette Brown never had the tools or abilities to be a dominant player in any role in this defense (predominantly 4-3).

Butler has the tools and abilities, it seems to be a matter of confidence with him, which it often is with CBs. He's gonna do fine here.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth

      I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years.
