@StephenHea84040 @LosTalksPats Sort of working under the theory that trading picks a year out usually gets you better returns, like how Brown might be worth a 2028 first but not a 2027 first (draft class quality notwithstanding)

@jfwtrmn @LosTalksPats Boutte for a 3rd? I'm what world?

Should the #Patriots extend WR Kayshon Boutte? Year 1 🔹85 Pass Snaps 🔹7 Targets 🔹2 Receptions 🔹19 Yards 🔹0 TDs Year 2 🔹507 Pass Snaps 🔹67 Targets 🔹43 Receptions 🔹589 Yards 🔹3 TDs Year 3 🔹521 Pass Snaps 🔹65 Targets 🔹42 Receptions 🔹719 Yards 🔹7 TDs

@PatsPlanet_ KC early, past that I could care less Would love an opener @ Seahawks for the extra rest time and eating the cross country travel early

Officially 2 more weeks until we get the #Patriots schedule release. Who would you like to get week 1?

@drakemayeloverr Yeah but the other 31 teams are fucked

@jailedamanda John Williams might be better at his job than anyone else has ever been at anything

@WembyCentral Wemby sent it to tel aviv!!

@CFBNumbers The fact he’s a Manning is more or less a guarantee he’s media-savvy and likely to survive being thrown into big media markets like the Jets, party cities like Miami, or sad sacks like Cleveland It actually does matter, and it’s a positive

If you replaced "Manning" with "Smith" you would still have a 6'4, 220lb QB with elite mobility/tools and showed a ton of flashes in the 2nd half of his penultimate season

@KleaverSports but don’t worry: two of those were in a snowstorm and his shoulder was also hurt for at least the last two lol man will be extremely, totally, and completely fine

Imagine the whiplash of facing a light schedule to then 4 top-10 (maybe top-5) defenses in a row in the playoffs for a 2nd year QB with no weapons

@Nate_Tice The great tank-off of 2026 between the Jets, Dolphins, Cardinals, and probably Browns is going to be the stuff of legend Both Jets-Dolphins games are gonna look like world war one

1.1

@dalydoseknicks @ShamsCharania Cutting salary to 44% of what it was and being 92% as good (even ignoring the Tatum injury) is the kind of thing that absolutely should win awards

@ShamsCharania Never heard of a guy winning an award for making his team worse.

Boston Celtics president Brad Stevens has been named the 2025-26 NBA Basketball Executive of the Year. Stevens also won the award in 2023-24.

@grantcohn @Mauerback Unfortunately if you draft the best QB in the class with any pick you get an A even if the rest of it is atrocious It's the exception that proves the rule though

@Mauerback I’d give it an F. What would you give 2022?

For all the analysts who say you can't grade a draft class for three years, let's see your grades for the 49ers' 2023 draft class. It has been three years.

@celtics now witness the powah of this fully armed and operational battle station

Injury Report for Game 5 vs. PHI: No injuries to report

@dfbsport @patri0ts3 unironically yes, keep Maye alive and let cheap, mediocre WRs get separation on the deep throws he excels at, while having a really good run game to keep people honest

@patri0ts3 yeah man let’s spend a 3rd consecutive 1st round pick on the offensive line while we let the entire WR room hinge on a 30 year old with knee issues remaining healthy and himself for 17+ games 👍

2027 potential Patriots offense: QB: Drake Maye RB: Treveyon Henderson FB: Reggie Gilliam WR1: AJ Brown WR2: Romeo Doubs WR3: Kyle Williams TE: Eli Raridon LT: Will Campbell LG: Alijah Vera-Tucker C: Jared Wilson RG: 2027 First round pick RT: Caleb Lomu

@DarthRaider916 @NFTzak @JoeA_NFL I think “generational” implies some unrivaled skill Mendoza doesn’t have (Allen-tier arm, Williams-tier evasiveness, Luck-tier processing) He’s the highest floor prospect since Luck but I don’t think his odds of being MVP-caliber are higher than Maye on paper, as prospects alone

Thanks for at least conceding Bowers lol Idk I think Jeanty and Bijan were closer than you think I was a big fan of Maye but consensus didn’t have him as a generational prospect. Maybe it’s bc Williams got all the hype like you said. And I might be higher on Mendoza but I think he is better than what people think… and most people think he is borderline generational

For a prospect to be generational, they would have to be... A QB better than Drake Maye A RB better than Bijan Robinson A WR better than Jamar Chase A TE better than anything we have seen since Gronk An OT like Penei Sewell An OG like Quentin Nelson A DE like Myles Garrett or at LEAST Aidan Hutchinson A DT like Aaron Donald A LB like Sonny Styles A CB better than Christian Gonzalez A S better than anyone since Ed Reed So no. That prospect probably isn't generational.

I don’t wish for Donald Trump to die. Wishing was invented by the Walt Disney Corporation to sell rat merchandise. I just think it would be really funny

@normal_jake_ Hey LeBron, we’re okay, Hugo Gonzalez is here

Seems like Jayson Tatum has been fairly valuable this postseason

@Paul_T62 @MikeReiss punter, and at this level of the draft the talent levels are pretty similar so just go buckshot

@MikeReiss Mike - what is the value of trading down five picks for an additional seventh round pick when they already have seventh round picks?

Patriots trade: Pick 191 Jaguars trade: Picks 196, 245

@RapSheet QB room of death and despair

This is an interesting one: The #Jets traded up to No. 110 and selected #Clemson QB Cade Klubnik. Add him to Geno Smith, Brady Cook and Bailey Zappe.

@grill_matthew @KevyBones @tkyles39 Those are efficiency stats, and you lose efficiency with volume He’ll likely stay leading the league in those next year too because teams have to respond to the run It also helps our goal line offense which was real bad last year

The #Patriots could have one of the most fun heavy personnel offenses in the NFL RB: Rhamondre Stevenson, TreVeyon Henderson FB: Reggie Gilliam TE: Hunter Henry, Julian Hill, Eli Raridon, Caleb Lomu
