Augie Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Flipping pizza is fun! Pancakes is better. Burgers even. Not to be a culinary snob, but....
PromoTheRobot Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Did we score? Where did everyone go? We scored again 4-3 now.
YoloinOhio Posted February 8, 2017 Author Posted February 8, 2017 Did we score? Where did everyone go? We scored again 4-3 now. 4-4
Thurman#1 Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 I would def flip them a 2nd   I'd have to do more tape-watching and due diligence, but yeah, if the scouts liked him, a 2nd sounds right to me.
auburnbillsbacker Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 I would offer a 5th. The Patriots would laugh at me and I would rest better knowing that I didn't offer too much for a QB who probably isn't that good.
ALF Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) If NE believes J.G. is a starter , showcase him the first 4 games next season . If he is good trade him then. Â I would think only the Browns would give the first pick in 2nd rd right now.

Greybeard Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Â So much respect to weight training in your 40's, but it isn't going to translate to Tom's career. Especially since a guy like Tom isn't basing his play on power lifting, its the explosiveness he can create with his motion that creates arm strength, which again has more to do with his tendons than power lifting. Â Its just unrealistic to expect Tom to play at a high level well into his 40's. especially his mid 40's. Anything is possible, but if you are the Pats are you going to trade away his current heir replacement on the very low odds he does what has not really been done before? I wouldn't. I believe you are correct. Back wen Nolan Ryan was nearing the end of his career I remember reading an article on how freakish he was. In order to throw at the velocity he did, the tendons in his arm had to be flexible. Typically players his age would have lost elasticity and therefore would have lost velocity. This did not happen to him, or at least they did not stiffen as much as what is typical. Brady probably falls into the same category.

Do you mean preseason?
ALF Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 how do they "showcase" him in the regular season? Do you mean preseason? Â Regular season if they want a high draft pick for him
jms62 Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Regular season if they want a high draft pick for him Regular season if they want a high draft pick for him So you are advocating sitting Brady or the first 4 games? I love the idea even though it is preposterous.
ALF Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) Just not against Atlanta the first game  NE went 3-1 last season without Brady Edited February 9, 2017 by ALF
ice2145 Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 IMHO, he is worth a first round pick. I would trade our first round pick for him in a minute. I know my opinion is in the minority. However, look at the college prospects vs. Garapolo, Garapolo is hands down a better opportunity to be successful. Who knows what next years QB draft will look like? I like what I saw In Garapolo. Granted it wasn't much and it was under the NE system. Don't beat me up too bad.

Being in division really complicates things in regards to a trade, but looking at the other QB talent in the draft, I don't know that giving up #10 for Jimmy + the Pats 3rd or the Browns 4th (from the Collins trade) is that outlandish (or even the Pats 2nd because they aren't getting a pick as high as #10 from anyone else), I would rather have Jimmy than any of the draftable talent this year plus getting back the extra pick gives you another bite of the apple you won't get just taking Watson / Trub / Kizer. However, I do think the team dealing for Jimmy should have hired McDaniels, I know "system QB" is a knock on guys, but I tend to view every QB as a "system" guy, you aren't going to run the same offense for Brady as you do for Cam. Â If NE believes J.G. is a starter , showcase him the first 4 games next season . If he is good trade him then. Â I would think only the Browns would give the first pick in 2nd rd right now.

Considering how much football is a game of attrition, if you really want to preserve Brady having a "relief" pitcher you believe in may not be a bad idea. Let Jimmy play a little more early in the season or play some halves against Browns level competition, then ramp Brady up as the playoffs near. There's certainly not much heat coming from the rest of the division onto their standing.
YoloinOhio Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 Â Regular season if they want a high draft pick for him well I'm all for it, but doesn't seem realistic
HT02 Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 No, I think we've all seen the back-up who plays great for a couple of games only to show why his was overlooked in the draft in the first place
Like A Mofo Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Pass. NE will want too much. Rob Johnson is on Line 1 to discuss how Buffalo tried this technique years ago.
Formerly Allan in MD Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Give them a first as long as they throw in Belichick.
Beef Jerky Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 If NE wants to get rid of him then it means they will draft another QB... Might as well just do that ourselves.
