There may have been a few friendly texts/banter sent but I doubt anyone was too upset…
What did the message read I wonder?
Damn you Beane! I was hoping to pick that guy in the 6th Round..
Firstly thanks for your original post...
In relation to this point...I cant see Crowder getting cut...he signed cheap but pretty much all guaranteed money...
Think he is going to surprise a few people ... play well and sign a bigger deal elsewhere in 2023..
If he makes the team it will be at the expense of Quessonberry or Mancz... one of whom I assume you have in your 51... Boettger is no doubt headed for IR /Practice Squad at the start of the season...
How much money will Ford save when you factor in paying his replacement... Isnt it likely who they keep in his place will cost more?
Im not saying he makes the team, but his cost wont be the reason..
The worst take I have seen here ( not from me) was the poster who wanted to start Barkley over JA in that disaster 2018 season because of Barkleys game over the Jets...
The guy still posts here but I wont name him...
Interesting that you seem to have cultivated a “draft buddy” relationship with Belichick… must be a mutual case of the “enemy of my enemy is my friend…”
Unfortunately might end up a 1 year thing as they might be picking too high next year…
Yeah that’s a good point about the new co-ordinator…it is a question mark but given he has been here you would think he doesn’t need to change too much..
The difference to me is that the O seems always in the game thanks to Allen… he makes the players around him better… exhibit A was the second Patriots game when he won the game (comfortably in he end) passing to McKenzie when Davis and Beasley were out..
I still suspect for all the added investment in the D over the past few years… if anything disappoints us in 2022 it will be that side of the ball..
They needed to replace 2 members of that elite “No 1 defense” … Hughes and Addison… which they managed to do with a future HOF…
Guess they viewed that as the biggest hole at the end of the day….
I think the O is going to work out pretty well in 2022… they were humming at the backend of last year…
I still expect the odd game where the D sucks like what happened against the Colts..hopefully it’s not in the playoffs…(again..)
