OBJ to the Pats? 

Lot of smoke that the Giants are looking to move him this off-season, and apparently the Pats were the most aggressive team in pursuing a trade for him last year but the Giants decided against moving him. 

If you’re the Giants I think it makes sense to move him. That team sucks. They have two players worth a damn on the entire roster that anyone would really want and that’s OBJ and Saquon. Saquon is still on his rookie deal, so they aren’t trading him. Getting rid of OBJ’s contract and getting picks might be worth a trade. They need a lot more than 1 player. 

If I’m the Giants I want a player and two picks or 3 picks for OBJ. I’d want like Chris Hogan or Dorsett or Patterson plus the Pats 1st round pick plus a 2nd or 3rd. 

And if I’m the Pats I’d make that deal all day long. You have absolute dog shit on the outside at WR and Gronk is basically finished. Get rid of one of those mediocre outside WRs and give up a couple picks and go get one of the top 4 or 5 WRs in the entire game.

Brady would stamp his approval

Yeah, you have to realize you are at the end of this (albeit 20 year) window, so why not maximize the next 2-3 years?  Makes all the sense in the world for them.

Absolutely. If I’m the Pats I do the deal ASAP then tell Gronk he’s restructuring the contract to peanuts or he’s cut, then draft a TE in the 2nd or 3rd round and another receiver in the 2nd or 3rd round. Maybe take one of the Iowa TEs or Gentry.
Time to re-tool that offense.

Saddest punts in the world.

Nice way to burn nearly an hour on the last 47,000 punts in the NFL.  Funny stuff .

damn, I'm a football junkie and plenty bored this time of year, but nearly an hour on NFL punts?

Patriots owner Robert Kraft charged in Jupiter, FL with soliciting prostitution. Kraft lives in Palm Beach, FL during the winter season. Apparently he frequented a "massage" parlor of the Asian persuasion just 15-20 mins north of Palm Beach in Jupiter, and the feds/cops have video evidence. The parlor was busted as part of a human trafficking ring, where the owners would lure girls from China to America with promises of a better life, and then once in the US force them to live/work at the parlor.

Makes sense why he's been so vocal recently about clearing out the prison system.

[MarqHusker]

I'm sure he was framed by Grigson or Frank Reich.  Did Kravitz provide the scoop?

[FearlessF]

if he can't buy himself out, no one can

Jason Witten coming out of retirement to play another year for the Cowboys, and most importantly, mercifully end us having to listen to that garbage MNF crew.  Hopefully they can figure out someone to take Tessitore and Booger off their hands too.
