Hope the Bucs fall flat....

They will be a tough offensive duo once again - Gronk makes Brady better and vice versa

 

[Whyjerry]

And Brate.

OJ Howard is a goner.

Tampa, on paper, looks pretty good on offense

They most certainly do. Arians is a great offensive coach. Brady hasn’t thrown to anyone like Evans since Moss. They are going to light it up on offense.

Only weak spot on O may be the RB position and that is even unknown.

 

[ItzKelz]

Well it hasnt been.....4 years

 

[blueblood70]

Heard they were working on a deal because he wanted to play again with Tom but only a 7th?

Dallas should be on the phone seeing what they want for Howard or Brate

they got a 4th but gave up Gronk and a 7th

These are the moves you make if you want to compete for chanpionships..

Instead.. We keep Dak...


Gotta love the safe approach.

You just asking for it, ain't cha?

I’m sick of their low risk low reward moves.

 

[LACowboysFan1]

I smell a conspiracy!!!!!!!!!

 

[csirl]

Get paid for a season that may not happen?

Apparently Rob Gronkowski wants back in as long as he goes to TB.
He’s under contract with the Pats for 10 mil but if he wants out he can force their hand.

Should be interesting to see how this plays out. Seems like Gronk was more done with Belichick than he was with football.

So now the Bucs have 3 good tes and the Cowboys still have none. How does Gronk the best te in history slip out the back door to Tampa w a 7th rd pick for a measely 4th round pick?

Speaks to how Belichick wears on people. Seems he wanted out of NE more than he wanted out of football.

Or he just wanted back in the league? Maybe Brady gave him a call? Why would he pick NE when his buddy is in Tampa with a high powered offense? I would have done exactly what Gronk did.

That's easy, Belichick. I think he makes those decisions. Ask him. Do you think he cares what others think? He has zero to lose while mending fences, somewhat.

NE didn’t have a choice.
If NE didn’t play ball in the trade Gronk could submit his paperwork which puts him back on NE’s roster with his 10 mil salary cap hit. That would immediately put NE 9 mil or so over the cap so they would have to cut Gronk or other players to get under the cap.
If they tried to send him elsewhere he could re-retire or holdout for a new contract.

Gronk actually did NE a favor by waiting to turn in his papers but BB knew he didn’t have a ton of time or leverage.

Tampa Bay, undefeated, top scoring offense, best defense; greatest team in NFL history.

I love reading the comments of the whiners, and those that always see green grass elsewhere. Dallas should pay nobody, draft all number ones, pick up every player traded, cut, and waived.

 

[Flamma]

We should’ve traded for Minkah Fitzpatrick like I said.

This is definitely something we should have tried. He's on the 3rd year of his rookie contract and playing a position that would have helped us. That's a minimum of two more years before any extension kicks in.

 

[Flamma]

Oh stop it.

The closer we get to this draft..

the more I am drinking.

Reminds me of my 1st marriage.

So you were drinking more leading up to your wedding? Or both?

 

[buybuydandavis]

Everything is so shot term.

From head coach to quarterback to tight end now.

If they don't win it all in two years (and they won't), it all falls apart.

Where would the Bucs be going without them?
They haven't made the playoffs in over a decade.

Brady and Gronk. I'd take it.

And are you counting on Dak being here long term? Because I'm not. Tampa actually has Brady signed for 2 years. We have Dak signed for 0.

Yes, I am. And clearly the Cowboys are as well.

Where is our green grass?


Tampa just added Tom Brady and Gronk.. That could’ve been Dallas..

Instead.. We move on with mediocrity and we will pay it long term..

This franchise is weak and the front office has no cajones.

Our chances at a Super Bowl would be drastically better with Brady and Gronk on the team vs what it is now.
