This tells everyone that Brady isn't going to retire anytime soon.

Also, Jimmy was a FA after this season.

With the hype that Garoppolo had, I thought the pats were going to have more than that for him

They have the same thing that the pats had for Matt Cassell in 2009.

JG fits the 49ers offense very well. I can see this working out for them.

Pats basically got a late first for a guy that they would have not been able to keep. TB12 is still playing at an elite level so they're not going to push him out the door, and they wouldn't franchise tag Garoppolo.

I'll say good deal for Pats, and a great deal for the 49ers.

One less destination for Cousins to sign with in the offseason.

It amazes me how many Steelers fans still gripe about letting Hoyer "walk away." The guy sucks.

Looks like old Bill has a QB eyed up in the 18 draft.

Reality check for anyone who believes the Steelers can get anything in a trade for a WR with an attitude who can walk after 2018 and is another failed drug test from being banned for good

Wonder if the Pats try to flip that pick for someone to help on their defense before the deadline tomorrow?

I wonder who they are going to get as backup. I looked at their roster(I felt cringie ) they don't have a QB on roster or practice squad. It would be awful if ass chin got hurt. For them that is.

A 2nd round pick for an unproven hype QB? The Gods must be crazy.

Didn't the Browns offer them a #1 in the off-season?

Questions of limited talent available and salary cap issues

One report suggests that Belichick will look to trade the pick for defensive line help (https://twitter.com/JasonLaCanfora/status/925170109764767744), a logical target given the wildly frustrating play of the Patriots this season. The problem is that the Patriots have only about $5.4 million in cap room...

There also just aren't many useful defensive linemen available from teams looking to give away talent, especially after the Bills dealt away the Marcell Dareus (http://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/13992/marcell-dareus) contract last week.

Because Belichick can do no wrong ESPN says all those rumored offers were not made rather than conclude Belichick might have screwed up for once

Something changed over the past six months for the Patriots. We might not know what happened for a while, but if you believe any of the reports about the sorts of offers the Patriots were expecting to field for Garoppolo this offseason, they played their cards all wrong. NFL executives suggested the Patriots would get a first-round pick in a Garoppolo deal (http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2693832-mike-freemans-10-point-stance-patriots-big-trade-bait-nfls-athletic-freaks). The Pats were reportedly asking for two first-round picks (http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-network-total-access/0ap3000000791137/Where-will-Jimmy-Garoppolo-be-in-2017), but were willing to settle for the first overall pick (http://www.cleveland.com/browns/index.ssf/2017/03/browns_will_still_try_to_trade.html). The Pats reportedly turned down an overture from the Browns during the first round of the draft for Garoppolo....

After Monday's trade, Occam's razor suggests none of that to be true....

In the end, the Patriots waited until just about the last second and took the best available offer on the table....

It also might say something about Belichick, who has been making moves designed to win now....

It's difficult to imagine him doing anything else, but you have to wonder whether Belichick plans to be coaching the Patriots after Brady decides to retire.

At least they got AJ McCarron, oh wait

They would have ruined the careers of every one of them.

Apparently, they plan on using their timeouts so Brady can get out his reading glasses to look at his wristband. :sissies:

Heres to hoping they draft the next Ryan Mallet. Who they drafted in the 2nd round and didn't pan out

[43Hitman]

Really if they didn't get super lucky with Brady, they've drafted shitty for many years now. They get a "guy" here and there, but they haven't drafted as well as the Steelers by any stretch.

Get rid of the communists in SF and it would be paradise. It's really beautiful where the mountains roll into the Pacific.

You can upload to your album, then copy the link address, and then paste into your post through the "insert image". I just did this with the picture of the Koala.
