2023 Free Agency and Trades

[cheerupcharlie]

What about Andre?

Not a free agent.

 

[NWPATSFAN]

Not a free agent.

You're right but could Bill have gone the trade route for Amdre and got a true #1?

I guess he still could? I just think doubtful now.

Not sure Ju Ju is that much of an upgrade over Jakobi. Ju Ju does rack up more YAC. Was the #1 in Pitt but a lesser slot role in KC. It would be nice to see a WR work out for the Pats via trade, draft or FA.

I would think BB must be still looking at other options. Maybe Hopkins? Maybe a pass catching TE with Smith now gone? Because at this point they haven't really improved. Sure a couple back up OL and a change of pace RB which isn't really an upgrade over Harris IMO.

Well there is the rumor that the Pats are looking at DHOP and Jeudy. If we can manage a deal for DHOP that does not involve a 1st round pick I think we pull the trigger

 

[YankeeRebel]

How about this.

Dhop to NE in exchange for Bourne our 3rd this year?

 

[BigKen]

So home state does make a difference.

California, Massachusetts, Illinois don't give a shit where you live. You earn or your company is based there, you pay state taxes if youearn there.

Been there, got the rectal tax scars.

Not any corruption in those states...

 

[Yankee Traveler]

Jakobi couldn’t. Ju Ju was the best option left of the Free Agent WR’s

With much better YAC production.

Darnell Washington?

Dhop is very available - it's about the money - not the trade!

 

[BigKen]

He said that he's more than willing to renegotiate his contract. Still need a #1 or A+ Receiver.

JuJu = B+
Bourne = C+
Parker = C+
Thorton = C

Hopkins = A
Jeudy = B-

He is not a FA so what does Very Available mean.
Cards are looking for draft capital. This allows them a WR and a selection. They don't have to trade him

thats cause your not a nfl player they pay taxes differently

Do NFL players pay taxes in every state?


But athletes and other entertainers operate under different rules than the rest of us: even in states with a multiday threshold, athletes are always taxed, and the calculations are typically based on what are called “duty days,” which is the number of days they spent in that state as a percentage of their season.

It would be a salary dump for AZ.
You got $20 million per? He's your guy.
Renegotiating his contract would be giving him more years.
Can't see Bill giving him a retirement contract.

OKay so where did DHOP indicate he is looking for a retirement contract? I felt his intent was to take less to get out of there.

He'll be 31 years old this season. Give him more than 3 years and he'll be losing a step?
Word is hewants to play in Dallas.....

So for three years we could have a #1. Doesn't sound bad to me.

Why he would want to play in Dallas boggles my mind

Why did you move south?

 

[YankeeRebel]

Why did you move south?

B/C there is no way to get a lady born and raised in Florida to move to NH. I would move back there in a heartbeat

This is a very big pickup!
Why are folks not excited? Not worried about RB's?
Bye Damien, we've got a RB who can catch too!

Hopkins is from South Carolina - maybe he likes the south?
