Tour2ma Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Too bad a 2018 2nd round pick is actually a 3rd. lol... I caught the "dig".... well done. All I can say Tour- if we trade for this guy- it had better work. By now you know I'm dead set against it. Let's take a look at what's transpired. Jets- May well roll with Hackenberg to see what they've got. As am I at the Pats' price. Just trying to think how a deal might work, and at the Pats' price a new contract would have to be in place. As for the Jets... if they are onto Hackenberg, I'd sure take a shot at Petty. And if Cutler ends up with NYJ, and there certainly is a bit of chatter about that, then Petty should be even more available. There Is no rational basis for this belief... It's a net present value, accounting thing... and it's real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jiggins7919 Posted March 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 It's obvious to me we're stacking a historical amount of draft picks in order to make a play for a QB. I don't think many people would disagree with that. I definitely believe Garoppolo is the #1 guy we want, but I also think we know that might not happen. I've read reports stating the Patriots won't give up Garoppolo for anything less than the #1 overall pick, and I don't know about YOU guys, but I think that's complete crap. We can't make that trade, and I think we know that as well. Will the Patriots accept a deal that involves a boat load of second round picks? Honestly....no...no they won't. Want to know WHY? Because there's a good chance they have Tom Brady's replacement, AND there's no guarantee Tom will be healthy. It just takes one awkward hit on the knee, or one wrong fall on a shoulder, and boom. I've read the Patriots actually like Brisset, but he's also not ready yet. If they Pats traded JG, they'd be up the creek without a paddle if Tommy got hurt, and when was the last time the Patriots were EVER in that situation? If we can't make the deal for JG (I'm calling it now...there's no way it happens), then we have extra assets for next year. If we can't get JG, then don't be surprised if we move back in the first round this year and acquire an extra first round draft pick NEXT year. We'll want as much ammunition next year so we can essentially move up and grab whoever we want, OR we can trade a bunch of picks for a veteran starter.

The Gipper Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Ian Rapoport says there have been no trade talks with the Cleveland Browns Houston maybe? Assuming that JG was on the market...who would be the teams in the fray? Two you mention: Browns, DATs. What about SF if the Skins are going to be recalcitrant on Cousins? What about the Broncos? Chicago out of the mix it seems. (And why in the world...really...is Garropolo seen as being better than Mike Glennon? think about it) Jets in theory...but never in practice between those two teams.

Since being canned by the PD, Grossi is definitely jaded in covering the Browns. While some of the stuff he writes or says on the radio is true, he seems like he's lost some objectivity.

jiggins7919 Posted March 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Grossi can get lost. Whenever a follower on Twitter remotely disagrees with him, Grossi makes some snarky public post saying how he has "joined the ex-files" or some stupid shit (banning the poster from his feed). He's an arrogant douche bag, and we don't even need to discuss him any longer. He's not relevant whatsoever. That's probably why he's so angry all of the time.

Jimmy G can't be the future until the present is in the past... or something... The thought of trading away Brady is damn near unfathomable, but it's hard to think of a great Pat that Bill hasn't put out to pasture via trade.
