Hopkins is good, but David Johnson isn't chopped liver

Who was that All-American DB from Minnesota about 15 years ago?  Wasn't he the best-tackling CB?  Wore 22 I think...
Tyrone Carter.  
Thanks, guys.

He's going to play with an eye-patch.
.
I didn't expect CJ Henderson to run a 4.38, but he did.  He'll be the 2nd CB taken off the board thanks to it.  Florida's last 1st round CB, Vernon Hargreaves, was probably a better cover corner in college, but wasn't fast.  I think he ran a 4.53-4.55, somewhere in there and his NFL career hasn't been great.

Rams cut Todd Gurley, hence Bell holding out for guaranteed money

We have draft thread, but so much of the recent news surrounding free agency doesn't quite fit there...

I'm gonna say that it's not a great time to be a running back in the NFL...

That's why I changed it to Draft/Offseason

Ahh, didn't see that. Thanks for the merge, then.

Brady to the Buccaneers? :smiley_confused1:
writing was on the wall there. 

Belichik wasn’t going to commit to anything other than a 1 year at a time deal and he wasn’t going to give him $30 million a year like the Bucs did (including incentives). 

Honestly, Brady made the right call. He’s getting up there in age. The dude is going to be freaking 43. He doesn’t have a lot of time left and NE is in rebuild mode. That roster is aging and it sucks. Especially on offense. Tampa has way more talent than NE. It’s not even close.

Brady needs to make it as easy as possible on himself and maximize these next couple years. He’ll be playing in great weather for 8 games now bc of the division. Dude was used to playing in blizzards outdoors in NE, Buffalo, and NYJ. He’s playing Atlanta and New Orleans which have domes, and Carolina where it almost never gets cold- and in Tampa Bay where it literally never gets cold.

And he’s going to be playing with SOOOOO much more talent on offense that it’s a joke. Mike Evans & OJ Howard are freak shows. You won’t find many if any WR’s or TE’s as purely physically talented as those guys. And then you have another excellent young WR in Chris Godwin and another very good TE in Cameron Brate. 

Plus he’s going to have Bruce Arians and Tom Moore- two of the best offensive coaches in NFL history- leading the charge on offense. 


Tampa needs to either make a trade for OT Trent Williams or take a tackle with their first round pick, and maybe sign a f/a RB or see if they can steal someone like D’Andre Swift in the 2nd round and that offensive roster would basically be perfect. Compare that to NE’s dumpster fire of an offensive roster. Brady made the right move if he’s trying to win right now.

He is without a doubt the worst GM in the NFL. He’d be right up there for worst coach in the NFL it wasn’t for another overweight New England reject that coaches the Detroit Lions. 

When will stupid NFL owners learn that it’s the Brady/Belichik partnership and the owner Robert Kraft staying out of the football decisions that made that thing go. How many failure former NE assistants do we have to see before these owners get a clue?
