Winning cures all problems or makes them less visible. The Pats are one of the few teams that keeps most players in check, so I do think Bennett will be an issue. Of course I've also been way of course so time will tell.
Did you mean to say he won't be an issue? I think you also meant way ofF course? Not playing spelling Nazi I just wanted to make sure what you were saying?

Let's keep this positive, lol.
First winning makes getting less catches more tolerable. That may help:noidea:
I'm interested to see what the actual deal is? Like any $ changing hands? Otherwise on the surface this looks like a steal for the Pats, Bennet and a 6th for a 4th. He was sceduled to make 5 million in 16. Then he's an UFA next year. So the Pats will defintely leverage that against him. If he shows up, good attitude, does what's asked he'll see the ball enough to put himself in shape for a big pay day. Don't do those things an BB puts you on the bench potentially crushing your earning potential for FY17.
Normally, I don't like the Pats bringing in problems. They have enough issues to deal with. Most problem players seem to do well in NE. Hopefully Bennett doesn't become an issue. I like this deal.
Martellus don't make me come back to the hoop having to eat my words.
I think it's a good trade for the Pats, Bennett is a very good big TE, giving Brady two big targets down the middle of the field. When I heard Chicago may trade Bennett I thought it would be nice to bring him back to Dallas. Witten would still be #1 but Bennett would have been used more than when he was here before, and the team would have Wittens replacement on the roster.

It could mean more catches for Gronk? Bennett is a better blocker than Chandler for starters. This combo will be a huge matchup problem for teams so Gronk may be open more. If Bennett can play anywhere between his level of play in 13/14 and his down year of 15 Pats could be very scary.
I wonder what this means for Amendola? 1. Will he take a cut in pay like rumored? 2. Is he trade bait now? 3. Is BB done in this FA period?
The answer to number 3 is no. Shea McClellin beign signed to a 3 year deal. No numbers yet.

The Bears are trading TE Martellus Bennett to the Patriots for draft pick compensation, league sources tell ESPN. This will give Patriots the double TE threat they have lacked.

Who's going to deliver the ball to them?

If Brady gets confidence in him then Gronk will be getting less passes to and this won't be a problem

All Gronk wants is Brady to stop tossing passes to the DBs and bouncing balls five yards short.

Damn, I messed that one up:doh:. I did mean Bennett won't be an issue. My eyes and brain are failing me tonight.

He'll tell only after IF it happens.
Oh I see it's like his picks:crazy:But hey if Bennett can catch 78% of the balls thrown his direction like HCs winnings, I'll be rolling myself around in a bath of cheddar. Scott Chandler was a huge disappointment.

Because the NE coaching staff won't put up with his shit and he'll likely cause trouble in training camp/pre-season. Patriots likely threw away their 4th round pick.
I thjnk you'll be standing on an island by yourself with that prediction.

You guys are clowns. My 78% is clearly documented with sportsbooks around the globe. Don't hate cause I make fat stacks and can afford the finer things in life.

You'll likely run and disappear when I'm right about Bennett, most people do when confronted with my correct predictions.

I hit 82% on my March Madness picks last year. I usually don't mess with college basketball, but I had a huge fat stack to work with because of the previous football season.

I thought you had to be 18 to bet? Your constant reminder to everyone makes you sound like you're 14? Or Rex Ryan? I promise to come back in congratulate you if you're right. However I think it will be you hiding again. Just like the 1000 times you were asked to give a prediction BEFORE a game. ..
