Do the Patriots pick #1 overall?

[soxfan1468927]

I would rather see him traded to the Browns or Bears than say KC or Denver!!
Dude is a young Tony Romo

They won't trade him to an AFC contender.

Good. Besides the AFCW has low picks so you don't want to do business with them!

I don't understand why G chicken wouldn't have a contract based on how well he played with the new team. Pats have zero leverage unless multiple teams are going after Garapollo.

Word on the street is that there is intrest from Houston, Chicago, Cleveland, & San Fran. That bodes well for New England.

 

[NEPatsfan]

Even if Garoppolo is better than any QB in the draft, he isn't better than the top 20 players in the draft. An early 2nd rounder seems appropriate IMO.

See Stafford for an explanation why it might be a 1st, and possibly more.

Wait, first pick overall for Garrappollo??? No

Jimmy G ain't going to a WCO team unless it's shanny. Cross Denver and KC off the list.

Probably not, but likely a 1st rounder because of the Stafford trade and the number of teams expressing interest, oh the fact that there are hardly any QBs available in the draft or otherwise.

I think you mean Bradford.

Im not hating or nothing like that. I would just hate to see Jimmy playing for you guys or Denver..
He's really good and worth a first round pick, imho

 

[NWPATSFAN]

If I'm going to give up a 1st rounder, then he better have some skins on teh wall or be cheap for 4 years to see what we have. As is he will be cheap for 1 year and then UFA kicks in and he costs a lot more.

It's always a crap shoot. Ryan Leaf vs Tom Brady. You never know. Luckily there is three teams at least sniffing the possibility that's an advantage for NE. Like we both mentioned. It's a one year prove it deal. At least those teams have seen Jimmy G in a pro offense even though it was only 6 qtrs. So does a team have bigger needs then QB? If so maybe they don't deal a high pick away. But if they feel their biggest need is a QB who can manage a game. Maybe they do make the trade giving up a firts. I really think Cleveland gives up a #12 and whatever else BB can get from them.

Cleveland would be a solid spot IMO for Jimmy. Pryor looks legit, OL is workable, Barnidge is there as well, young skill position talent. Hue is pretty flexible so I am not too worried about scheme. Worth noting the Patriots and browns have worked out a trade already. Giving Jimmy to Houston would be foolish for NE.

Pretty eh on San Fran and Chicago; those two just look like they're trying to bail from a QB class that lacks a tier 1 prospect

 

[flyingelvis]

He looked good in his brief time filling in for Brady. But this is in the Pats system. You put him in Cleveland they will probably destroy all he has learned.

But with multiple suitors, and a weak QB draft, I still think they hold out for a first. If no one pays, fuck it, keep him.

According to the Boston radio guys who were at the Super Bowl, there were multiple reporters from QB-less cities who were talking to Jimmy G. They said he was one of the most popular guys to talk to.

Wait. Stafford was traded? Matt Stafford?

Doesn't surprise me. Gives them fodder to write about.

OK...typo. That Makes more sense. I went to google to see what the heck I missed.

Yeah the only problem with the comparison is that it was right before the season, and a desperation move by Minnesota. They felt they had the pieces to compete and just needed a decent QB. If they are going to trade him, it will be to a team that makes a calculated decision, not a desperate one. So it will yield less of a return.

NE and Cleveland have been good trade partners, add Mike Lombardi to the mix as well as the two picks Cleveland has in the first? I think this deal gets done.

Yep keep him and trade him in mid season when a starter inevitably goes down.

Didnt Jimmy G come from a weak QB draft?
