Been a good day so far.

Bill definitely using that cap space.

Pats, Shane O Mac, same thing

 

[Josepho]

I'm happy for him but that's probably excessive.

Seems to be a weird personality clash here, but you go where the money is.

NFL deals, so it's not that much about the term, structure is the key. But it's a FA signing, so you can't expect too much of a discount here, but then again 14m$ for a premium edge rusher doesn't sound too bad.

wonder what the comp pick will be

Still need a QB to get a good TE the ball. Certainly Belichick knows 2021 is a critical season. Not just for the team. But for him. Alot is on the line.

Give him credit for trying to fix the holes.

Nothing is on the line for Belichick, nothing will ever be on the line for Belichick, he will be there until he no longer wants to be there

Judon is mediocre. He's not good pass rusher at all.

Really. Im not going to pretend to know a lot about him, but I thought the risk here for NE was he needs to be in right system and right place and might have some attitude issues.

i wouldn't say he's not good at all. not worth that kind of money, but he's still got talent and is a difference maker

What's so funny?

Your entire shtick.

Your entire shtick.

So the owner should keep a guy that continues to fail miserably at the draft. And...has proven nothing without a HOF QB by his side?

Now your reply may be...you don't turf a coach with 6 SB's.

Ok. So at what point does the owner step in and stop the miserable drafts and mediocre seasons without a HOF QB. 2023? 2030?

This is assuming they have a losing record in 2021. And the miserable drafting continues.

You know nothing about the Patriots, sorry.

Belichick has rebuilt the Patriots 3 times (2001, 2007 and 2010). Each time ushering a sustained window of contention. Yes, Brady is a huge part of it.

Belichick has EARNED the right to go through this rebuild. Now, he has to replace the biggest piece of the previous three windows.

If you want to argue that he had poor drafts after 2014. Fine.

So, to answer your question, BB has earned at least until 2025. And, by then, he'll be too old anyway.

The owner never steps in short of Belichick committing some atrocity or PR nightmare, six SB's buy you as many years as you want to coach, it is easy to hammer the drafting but you also have to take into account that they are always drafting at the end of the round, he has not been picking in the top 10-15

His drafts have ranked 14 out 32 the last 5 years, so just about dead average. The terrible drafting has been overstated.

Are you going to argue what I'm saying? Or just spew nonsense?

Argue with what? Stuff that has no basis in reality? As was already posted if he had miserable drafts what do you call the GMs who are ranked behind him? The dude also just won 7 games in a season where he had absolute junk at skill positions and you post nonsense about him being on the hot seat? It's complete and absolute drivel that doesn't deserve anything other than being laughed at for posting hot takes.

 

[MMC]

Great signing, transformed NE's defense and a big reason they're a playoff team again.
