    • The Patriots are finalizing a deal to send quarterback Mac Jones to the Jaguars, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Sunday.

      • Put a nail in that coffin. Patriots will definitely be looking for a QB. If they're smart, they'll draft one at #3 and do a full rebuild.

        Was reading an article by a Patriot sportswriter cosplaying as a national sportswriter claiming that they are the pivot point of the draft at #3 since they can go in so many directions. I mean, I guess if you're delusional about the competitiveness of the team. Every realistic mock drafter just gives them the #3 QB prospect at that spot. Pick #5 is the real pivot point.

        Honestly, I'm really looking forward to the Patriots fans learning about how a Belichick roster only works for Belichick. Wouldn't mind seeing that fan base go through a decade or so of losing.

        • There have been some rumblings about Mayfield and the Patriots. Belichick was rumored to be a big fan of Baker during that draft. BB obviously not there anymore, but there could still be some people in the organization that like him.

          Sign Baker, draft Harrison and fill up on OL in free agency, might be appealing to a defensive coach that feels pretty good about his side if the ball.

            Considering the depth at QB and WR, I could see them going for a small contract for Wilson or Cousins. Trade back from three and get the 2nd or third best WR, and pickup a QB in the second to take over at QB in the next couple years.

            But realistically this is the year to get a QB high, even if Harrison Jnr is the smart pick at that spot.

            • Cousins is not taking a small contract. He’ll get $45-50/year probably, and if he leaves Minn it could be 3-4 year deal. Minnesota wants him back, but whether they are willing to commit beyond a couple of years is the question.

                I meant for time, 2-3 years. Maybe 2 years with a voidable third.

                • Viking will almost assuredly keep him if he’s only getting 2 year deals. Cousins and his family don’t want to leave Minn and O’Connell definitely wants him back.

                    I don't see a good option for them other then Cousins, but I also have to think that this injury and how the contract discussions go, they will use this as a chance to move on. Also think the Pats would have less issue with hitting the edge of top dollar in the contract if they are fully attached to it being a 1-2 year deal.

                    Whereas the Minny might not want to spend that much on a QB to continue to tread water as the need some significant rework of the team. Not keeping Cousins may allow them to really attack the rest of the team while they figure out who the next QB is.

                    • Ideally for them would be Cousins on a 2 year deal and pick one of McCarthy/Nix/Penix who can take over in 2 years. sort of the Green Bay plan.

                        Oh man. I'm not a big Mayfield fan but that's a pretty great fit for him. They'd love Baker up there in NE.

                          Please be Penix and not McCarthy or Nix.

                          • Fletcher Cox retiring. Eagles truly moving into a new phase.

                            Eagles defensive tackle Fletcher Cox announced his retirement on Sunday after 12 seasons in Philadelphia.

                            • Looks like Baker and Bucs are going to get a deal done, no FA for him. That’s a pretty good deal for both sides.

                              • That makes a lot more sense than going to New England. The Patriots are a tire fire and they're cheap.
