LOL... better be ready to trade up all the picks to the Browns if they actually wanted Mayfield.nope
CBS Sports' Jason La Canfora reports the Patriots' acquisition of the No. 23 overall pick from the Rams in exchange for Brandin Cooks "was all about" trying to trade up for a quarterback in this month's draft.
A member of the Patriots' organization told La Canfora he would "certainly not" be surprised if the Cooks trade was made to acquire more ammo to move up in the draft. La Canfora admitted his "total hunch" is the Patriots may be eyeing Baker Mayfield due to his mobility and top-notch accuracy. Coach Bill Belichick realizes he needs to find Tom Brady's successor, and this QB-deep draft offers one of the best chances to find that guy. However, there will be a ton of competition to move up in the draft. New England has two firsts and two seconds
They think is a key part of this as nobody in this draft can play LTId imagine the most likely scenario for the Pats is them trading up for someone who they think can play LT.
i like mayfield. if they DO package these picks up (23, 31, and whatever garroplo was) you can get him.If they trade up for a QB, it will be Baker Mayfield imo and only if he drops.
I think if Baker Mayfield doesn't end up on the Broncos or the Patriots then I'll consider this draft a success regardless of what the Chiefs do.
I guess you could throw in Josh Rosen into this, too, if he drops for off the field issues.
I have no clue how the Pats beat out the Bills to get to 4 if that is their plan unless they truly are trading Gronk which would get into weird territory at that point. Why would the Browns want to pick at 23 and 31? 20-50 might be the same-ish this year but 1-19 are not.i like mayfield. if they DO package these picks up (23, 31, and whatever garroplo was) you can get him.
his ego worries me...but then i read shit like this:
Oklahoma's Baker Mayfield wants to pick Tom Brady's brain
the asset they just got with the jimmy G pick gets you in top 10 discussion.I have no clue how the Pats beat out the Bills to get to 4 if that is their plan unless they truly are trading Gronk which would get into weird territory at that point.
Yeah, it's now possible in insolation. But how do you outbid a desperate Bills team with better 1st round picks? Hard to believe.the asset they just got with the jimmy G pick gets you in top 10 discussion.
