Weaponized: Patriots Free Agency
* Jacoby Brissett is an admission of suck
How to dig your franchise into a decade + long hole 101
- all eggs in the basket of the rookie QB.
NO Left Tackle
NO Veteran WR
Yet
No one wants to come here - suck tax
Additions - Yay or Nay
Departures -
At least they have a plan
- Identified guys (a lot of their own) and went for them. More than Bill has done recently
- Maybe foolishly I have more faith in their ability to draft.
Here's the phrase Im starting to hate
"If you love the guy, take him" - QB
All QBs are high end projections and drafted too early.
- Build a team. Follow the numbers.
High draft pick QBs with shit around them fail 100% of the time.
- Jacoby Brissett is guaranteed you a sub .500 season. You'll be back at the top end of the draft next year.
- Collect assets.
2024 draft - nothing but tackles and WRs. HMMM what do the Patriots need?
Stack high end talent. Not mid tear value - like Bill. High end talent and assets.
Who's left?
