They !@#$ with other teams in the division all the time. They make player for pick deals on a regular basis and it has nothing to do with mind games of other AFC East teams. Just now, Sherlock Holmes said: Probably trying to jump in front of us at 22 which wont be hard with 23 and take Rudolph. I'd approve that. Please do this Mr. Belichick.

Cooks was a dispensable asset and he got a 1st for him (Rams are the new Redskins). The Cheats will call around to the same teams Beane is calling trying to get in front of us.

They paid a 1st for him last season so in effect they rented him for a season before having to pay him big money after his rookie deal expires. Too much Patriot Paranoia.

Maybe even Belicheat thrown in since all their cheating asses are retiring and maybe, just maybe Kraft just wants to insult Belly for trading Garrapolo by sending him back to the Browns.
whatdrought Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 (edited) Hang on, If the Patriots want to mortgage their future (trading Gronk and all that capital) after pissing away a future franchise QB, is that really something we should be worried about? Honestly, the worst part of this for the Bills is that the Patriots aren't going to pay Cooks a ton of money to underperform in their system for the next 5 years.

aceman_16 Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 They are NOT grabbing a QB this year. People forget they dumped a "sure thing" in Garapolo for a 2nd. IF they wanted to retool they would have kept him and still made the trades to surround him with future talent.
26CornerBlitz Posted April 3, 2018 Posted April 3, 2018 Brandin Cooks traded: Players Patriots could be targeting at No. 23 in 2018 NFL DraftAfter moving Brandin Cooks -- a player the Patriots traded a first-round pick to obtain in the 2017 offseason -- to the Rams in exchange for Los Angeles's first-rounder this year, New England suddenly has the No. 23 overall and No. 31 overall selections in the 2018 NFL Draft.Which prospects could Bill Belichick be targeting with his new pick inside the Top 25? 1
MTBill Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 They need a LT - I suspect that is who they are moving up for... And will be looking to grab a QB - they draft one every season I think. Maybe Rudolph.

Get this strange feeling if Lamar or to a further extent Rudolph start to get into the late teens and are available, BB will trade up for one. There is no way the guy isn't still sour grapes about trading Garopp, he'll remedy that with this draft. Just now, MTBill said: They need a LT - I suspect that is who they are moving up for...

But, yes, we should be able pick a QB before NE unless something weird goes down. EDIT: strange wild thoughts. The trade up game changes if Tom Brady is involved. A couple options --> NE trades up to #2 with Giants including swapping Brady and Eli? --> Brady to Denver in a trade up to #5? This offseason is more and more like Madden everyday Edited April 4, 2018 by Manther
turftoe Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 I will not be happy if the Pats pick ahead of us. If they get to #7 or #4, they could move to #2.

Because Bill Bellicheck* isn't interested in winning at this point. From what I'm reading here, he is only interested in playing head games with the Bills. It's all a ploy to get the Bills to do something irrational. It goes like this: 1) Pats* trade Cooks for a first round pick. 2) Bills run around like headless chickens, making any trade they can just to make it look like they're doing something. 3) ??? 4) Pats* 2019 Championship!! 58 minutes ago, HappyDays said: That is definitely the weirdest possible way to think about this trade That's how you think about this trade when you have no clue what the hell is happening. 1 hour ago, Magox said: I see the whiny overreacting ninny's are out in full force.

Maybe not in the 1st, but I could see it. Could also see them packaging #22, #31, and Brady for Denver's #5. So who knows. 1
PatsFanNH Posted April 4, 2018 Posted April 4, 2018 29 minutes ago, 26CornerBlitz said: Left tackle Nate Solder signed a mega-deal with the New York Giants. Cornerback Malcolm Butler left for greener pastures in Tennessee. Wideout Danny Amendola signed with the Dolphins. New England further depleted its receiving corps by trading Cooks to the Rams. Perhaps the Patriots acquired a second first-round pick in hopes of filling one of their newly created holes with a top-level prospect. New England may not be interested in selecting a quarterback in the first round of the 2018 draft. However, even if they are, their draft capital is not as attractive as that of the Bills. If they do eventually decide to move further up the draft board, they’re going to have a tough time jumping in front of Buffalo. Solder was way overpaid! But good for him!! Amandola will be more missed than Cooks, but the Pats still have a good WR core with Edelman, Hogan, Mitchell, and Britt. So at most they need a better #4. CB They are set but may need another good one (people forget Butler was UDFA) they need a stud pass Rusher the most... as I said before I could see them packaging their two first for seven If Chubb falls that far. That makes more sense to me than a QB to me.
