Dude retired from the pats because his body is falling apart. Apparently he has put it back together now? Humpty dumpty style?

Raiders shocked me, when they let him hit FA the first time... he was too good to let go (then), but they disagreed, and coming off a season ending injury that year. But he once was very very good, I don't know how he has been in recent years.

Injuries have taken a toll on him, and after signing with the Patriots, he retired a week later because he didn't think his hip could make it the whole season. But he's unretiring now...

So....pick up a injured guy. Just what we need.
I guess it cuts out the middle man.
Hopefully he can play. We need SOMETHING to help.

Though some fans want to just sit him until the Vikings game.

Those, I don't know what he has in recent years...

There are certain positions, such as QB, OT, edge rusher and CB, that are extremely extremely rare to find a decent one during the season other than maybe via trade. And trading deadline has now past.

Mucky Tundra (22h) : I may end up eating those words but I think they need a lot more talent then their 4 picks can provide

Mucky Tundra (22h) : I really hope they stand pat and Draft a WR

Mucky Tundra (22h) : @DMRussini

Mucky Tundra (22h) : The Chicago Bears are very open for business at 9 and telling teams they are ready to move for the right price, per source

buckeyepackfan (24-Apr) : Lions extend Penei Soul 4yrs - 112mil

buckeyepackfan (24-Apr) : Lions extend St. Brown 4 years 120mil and

Mucky Tundra (24-Apr) : Now look, trading up to 13 to take a TE might not seem like a good idea later but it will be later!

dfosterf (24-Apr) : (Your trade up mock post)

dfosterf (24-Apr) : Mucky- The only thing fun to watch would be me flipping the f out if Gute goes up to 13 and grabs Brock Bowers, lol

beast (21-Apr) : Sometimes looking extremely amazing, sometimes looking extremely lost

beast (21-Apr) : I haven't looked into the QBs, but some have suggested Maye has some of the most extremely inconsistent tape they've seen

beast (21-Apr) : Well it also sounds like Patriots are listening to trade offers, not that seriously considering any, but listening means they aren't locked

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Maye needs to be AFC

Mucky Tundra (21-Apr) : Not liking the idea of the Vikings getting Maye

Zero2Cool (21-Apr) : Vikings HC joked that he may or may not have sent flowers to Bob Kraft. That's where rumor came from.

beast (21-Apr) : Can't tell if this is real or BS, but some rumors about a possible Patriots/Vikings trade for #3 overall

dfosterf (21-Apr) : One playbook to my knowledge. I was shooting for facetious.

beast (20-Apr) : I'm not sure they have different playbooks for different OL positions, and Dillard run blocking is supposedly worse than his pass blocking..

dfosterf (19-Apr) : The only problem with that is he isn't a guard either.

dfosterf (19-Apr) : Put him at right guard. That is where he will be coached. That is where he will compete. He is not even allowed to look at the LT playbook.

dfosterf (18-Apr) : Kidding aside, I hope the best for him.
