Patriots trading for Dwayne Allen

[davey999]

As per Schefter.

See Jerry, this is how you do it. Lose a guy - replace him.

At this point, the Patriots are on another level than any team at roster management. $60MM in cap space and just pull trades like this off. They'll probably be active during the draft too.

Belicheck is playing chess, Jerry is playing Connect 4.

I thought it was Dance Dance Revolution?

 

[Floatyworm]

I'm not scared. We got Brice Butler....and that's all we need.

Another cog in the machine when Gronk goes down again.

No, at this point, we are eating the play-doh. Many here think it's yummie.

It helps when you have the greatest coach ever, and not to mention have won 5 Superbowls under him. Players will take a cut to play there, here, not so much.

In other news.......... Kenny Stills is likely going back to Miami.

Real curious on the average cap hit.

We are rueing Dwayne Allen now?

They don't pay their own players which is why they've now lost Chandler, Collins, and Hightower. They have almost no one on a long term deal and no crippling QB contract either.

Is this PatriotsZone? Good lord

You missed the point.

So? How does that refute my point? They let players go all the time and still win SBs. They don't get emotionally invested in players. They make cold, hard business decisions.

And Brady is a $22MM cap hit this year so it's not like his contract is cheap.

Only a fool doesn't recognize that right now, the Patriots are better at roster management than pretty much any team in football, even our precious Cowboys?

 

[Alexander]

Huh.

A trade.

You can do that?

Wow.

 

[Yakuza Rich]

Yes, because we will undoubtedly not play with a 53-man roster.

[TheRomoSexual]

Huh.

A trade.

You can do that?

Wow.

Yes, when a player has value. Or when you're home alone on a Friday again playing Madden.

 

[gmoney112]

I'll be so ready when Brady retires.

Belichek is a tier above everyone, but Brady is the supercharger on the big block while everyone else is driving rice burners.

 

[Stash]

Yes, when a player has value. Or when you're home alone on a Friday again playing Madden.

So our "starter for the next 4 to 5 years" suddenly has no "value"?

Which part of that was Jerry Jones totally, utterly and completely wrong about?

 

[Silverstar]

Why is this thread in the Fan Zone?

Unless they are dealing with one of our players I could care less!

**** Brady and Belicheat!


Moved...good!

The Patriots are better at having the best QB to ever play. They've had bad roster management and drafting covered up by that fact.
