Patriots/NFL 2024 Playoffs: Patriots finish 4-13, Will pick 3rd. Mayo hired as HC.

Stroud and Love make it real hard to not take a QB with a top 3 pack even with all the previous busts

Ya but wasn't Love towards end of 1st round? He also sit for a while. I just don't think there's one definitive approach.

 

[GatorMike]

They gotta take MHJR if he's there. Patriots haven't had a legitimate weapon at WR in a long time. No use taking a QB high if he isn't going to have anyone to throw to.

No use in drafting a WR if your QBs are Mac Jones and Bailey Zappe.

 

[IveGotToBeMe]

What if Dak is available? Just thinking...

 

[The National]

Nice, well earned.

He’s good enough to get a loaded roster to the first round of the playoffs….Thats it.

Why not just draft the QB and pay for the WR1 in Tee Higgins.

Not sure we can get Higgins, but I like that plan more than drafting MHJr and hoping for the best with a 2nd or 3rd round QB.

Rams had nothing for that Lions opening drive.

 

[DNE3]

Draft the quarterback now. 2025 not looking to be QB elite. Can't cover all positions one draft. Justin Fields, Maye, Penix Jr., even Bo Nix. I don't care. Most important position to begin rebuild.

There’s a lot of WR depth in this draft. QB depth, not so much. You can find a lot of good/great WRs later in the draft than the #3 pick. Yes, MHJ is a great player, but he’ll maybe touch the ball 10 times a game on a good week.

So many good WRs outside the first round. All you gotta do is watch the 2 games today to see that.

 

[smithformeragent]

how much money is Jerry going to throw at Bill?

 

[smithformeragent]

cant see Bill working for JJ.

Parcells did. If Jones is desperate enough to see another Super Bowl, he may get out of Bill’s way and let him do his thing.

Yup, Jerry shut up and sat down for Parcells, he'll do it for Bill

 

[smithformeragent]

I'm gonna be rooting hard for the Belichick Cowboys next year

It will be must see TV, especially if the Patriots are not close to contention.

I rooted for the Cowboys when Bledsoe was there.

 

[EverettMike]

Belichick going to Dallas and winning a Super Bowl there after Parcells couldn't, same as in New England, would be amazing.

 

[rfournier103]

Wow.

How bout them Lions?

 

[Johnnyduke]

Wow.

How bout them Lions?

Yep, why bother interviewing someone like Ben Johnson...

While I want Bill to go there I wonder what his thoughts are on Dak...

Dak just seems like someone that cannot be helped in these big moments

 

[GatorMike]

Wow.

That team's been so bad for so long that I'm kind of rooting for them.

 

[RoccoF14]

Dak just seems like someone that cannot be helped in these big moments

….and he’s doing it with Jared Goff as his QB

Yeah exactly, feels like better luck drafting a receiver outside of the 1st than a QB.

This one isn't on Dak though, he's not the one that gave up 6 TD in the first 7 drives

Puka Nacua….5th round pick.

 

[Johnnyduke]

Dan Campbell is easy to root for. Big meathead but doesn't have his face buried in a play sheet. Surrounded himself with a good coaching staff and is the CEO type coach. Aggressive coach and winning with Jared Goff. The Lions easily could have gone full tank at 1-6 last year but didn't.

(Also enjoying Sean McVay and his team that is not in cap jail)

True, but he stunk in the first half when the game was still winnable.
