Good for Kraft, lets see if he spends it

Lamar Jackson and the best available LT in the first round.
Or, they supposedly like that WR from Texas A&M a lot.
23rd pick for 1 year of cooks is great value for the Pats.
Lamar Jackson will be a bust in the NFL. The fact he didn't run at his pro day and at the combine should alarm every interested team. He's not accurate enough with his arm to be an effective NFL QB, and not running raises a flag that his speed isn't very good either.
Yeah #32.Didn't they give up a first for him last year tho?
Yeah #32.
So you turned #32 in 17 for 1 year of Cooks and #23 in 18. That's a win.
Cooks just wasn't a great fit here. Like I said, the most underwhelming 1000 yard receiver on this team that I can remember.
He's a younger, slightly better Brandon Lloyd.
Love it.
Fix the defense and you can win a SB even if the offense is 80% of last year.
This also tells me Gronk is coming back, will be announced on Monday after WrestleMania.
How long have they been trying to "fix" the defense, yet not though?
Yup the 32nd and 96th for Cooks and a 4th rounder that was then forfeited from deflategateDidn't they give up a first for him last year tho?
Well they did through the draft a few years ago. That 14 team had studs on D they drafted.
They havent had any high picks the last few years, so this could be different.
The saints did not use the pick we traded them on Lattimore. They used there own pick. Lattimore was the 11th, we traded them the 32nd
They still got a starting tackle in the NFL with that pick.
Point is, using these draft picks isn’t detrimental because of Brady’s window or anything like that. They could get two starters on defense if they play the picks right.
Would actually like Jackson he would bring them a QB they never had before. A mobile one who can create on the run or just run it. Then with Brady mentoring him for a season or 2.
He's their type of guy and he's great on the 3 cone which seals itPats will take LVE with that 23rd pick. Whos been tied to the Steelers for the past few months.

They have to take the next QB though
If I'm Belichick I'm not letting Brady & Gronk talking about are they happy enough
I want the next QB in camp this year
And if Tom is not having fun Belichick can tell him to enjoy peddling your TB12 in retirement
I'm all in on Jackson - heads would explode
